11. Stock-Based Compensation

2018 Equity Incentive Plan

On September 17, 2018, the Board of Directors and stockholders approved the 2018 Plan. The 2018 Plan allows for the issuance of up to 7,033,971 incentive or non-qualified stock options, restricted stock or restricted stock units, or unrestricted stock to employees, consultants or advisors of the Company which vest in accordance with the specific terms of each individual grant (generally over four-year periods). The number of stock options, restricted stock, or restricted stock units and unrestricted stock is subject to adjustment as a result of a reorganization, recapitalization, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar change in the Company’s capital stock. At June 30, 2020, the Company had 3,856,978 shares of unvested restricted stock units and stock options outstanding and 375,093 shares available for grant under the 2018 Plan.

Restricted Stock

The Company granted 64,016 and 2,141,445 shares of restricted stock to employees during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Stock-based compensation expense recognized for the restricted stock granted was $0.5 million and $1.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, respectively, and $1.1 million and $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The aggregate intrinsic value of options is calculated as the difference between the exercise price of the stock options and the fair value of the Company’s common stock for those stock options that had exercise prices lower than the fair value of the common stock as of the end of the period.

 

The weighted average grant-date fair value of stock options granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $3.38 and $3.30 per share.
