The 2005 Plan provided for the grant of awards to eligible individuals in the form of stock, restricted stock, stock options, performance units or other stock-based awards, all as defined in the 2005 Plan. The 2005 Plan provided for the issuance of up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock to eligible individuals, including directors, through the various forms of permitted awards. The Company was not permitted to issue stock options at an exercise price lower than fair market value at the date of grant. All stock options were required to have an exercise period not to exceed ten years. The Company had granted awards of incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options under the 2005 Plan, all of which had exercise prices that were not less than the fair market value at the date of grant. Options granted had six month, one year, three year or four year vesting periods. All outstanding options were issued at market value as of the date of the grant. Stockholders of the Company approved the 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”) at the 2016 annual meeting of stockholders. The 2016 Plan will expire in June 2026. The 2016 Plan provides for the grant of awards to eligible individuals in the form of stock, restricted stock, stock options, performance units or other stock-based awards, all as defined in the 2016 Plan.

The 2016 Plan also allows limited transferability of any stock options to legal entities that are 100% owned or controlled by the optionee or to the optionee’s family trust. PSUsThe PSUs vest subject to market and performance conditions. The conditions are weighted 25% based on market conditions and 75% based on performance conditions. Market conditions are based on the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to a select group of peer companies at the end of a three year performance period. Performance conditions are based on the Company’s actual Adjusted EBITDA over the three year performance period compared to forecasted Adjusted EBITDA over the same period. Depending on the TSR and Adjusted EBITDA at the end of the performance period, anywhere from 0% to 200% of the target grant may vest. Expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the performance period beginning on the date of grant. Probability is assessed quarterly on the performance conditions and compensation expense is adjusted accordingly. Actual forfeitures are recognized as they occur.
