The Company’s Board of Directors established the terms and conditions of the grants under the 2015 Plan. No further grants are authorized or outstanding under the 2015 Plan.

The 2018 Plan is designed to attract and retain key personnel and service providers. The Company’s Board of Directors, or appointed administrators, establish the terms and conditions of any grants under the 2018 Plan.
The aggregate number of common shares of the Company as to which share incentive awards may be granted from time to time under both the 2015 Plan and 2018 Plan shall not exceed 15,776,223 shares.

The number of available awards at December 31, 2025, was 9,772,503.
Stock options
Stock options vest over a prescribed service period and are approved by the Board of Directors on an award-by-award basis. Options have a prescribed service period generally lasting up to four years, with certain options vesting immediately upon issuance. Upon the exercise of any stock options, the Company issues shares to the award holder from the pool of authorized but unissued common shares.
