STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

(4)   STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

In June 2017, our stockholders approved the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2017 Stock Plan”) with a maximum of 5 million shares reserved for issuance. Awards permitted under the 2017 Stock Plan include: Stock Options and Restricted Stock. Awards issued under the 2017 Stock Plan are at the discretion of the Board of Directors. As applicable, awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant and generally vest over four years. Restricted Stock Awards are issued to the recipient upon grant and are not included in outstanding shares until such vesting and issuance occurs.

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, no stock option awards were granted under the 2017 Stock Plan. During the three months ended September 30, 2020, no stock option awards were granted under the 2017 Stock Plan. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, 14,000 stock option awards were granted under the 2017 Stock Plan. At September 30, 2021, the company had 0.7 million stock options outstanding and 0.6 million exercisable under the following plans:
