Stock-Based Compensation

In June 2020, the Company’s board of directors adopted the 2020 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) and reserved 2.93 million shares of common stock for issuance under this plan.  The 2020 Plan includes automatic annual increases. The increase on January 1, 2021 was 2.08 million shares. As of March 31, 2021, 1.78 million shares remain available for future grant.

The 2020 Plan authorizes the board of directors or a committee of the board to grant incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options and restricted stock awards to eligible officers, employees, consultants and directors of the Company. Options generally vest over a period of four years and have a contractual life of ten years from the date of grant.

Stock-based compensation expense for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was classified in the condensed consolidated statement of operations as follows:
