The Incentive Plan provides for the issuance of stock options of up to 20,000,000 shares (subject to adjustment) of the Company’s common stock to officers, directors, key employees and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries. Options granted to employees under the Incentive Plan, including directors and officers who are employees, may be incentive stock options or non-qualified stock options; options granted to others under the Incentive Plan are limited to non-qualified stock options.
The Incentive Plan is administered by the Board of Directors or a committee designated by the Board of Directors. Subject to the provisions of the Incentive Plan, the Board of Directors has the authority to determine the officers, employees and consultants to whom options will be granted, the number of shares covered by each option, vesting rights and the terms and conditions of each option that is granted to them; however, no person may be granted in any of the Company’s fiscal year, options to purchase more than 2,000,000 shares under the Incentive Plan, and the aggregate fair market value (determined at the time the option is granted) of the shares with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by an optionee during any calendar year cannot exceed $100,000. Options granted pursuant to the Incentive Plan are exercisable no later than ten years after the date of grant.
The exercise price per share of common stock for options granted under the Incentive Plan will be the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day prior to the date of grant; except for incentive stock options granted to a holder of ten percent or more of the Company’s common stock, for whom the exercise price per share will not be less than 110% of the fair market value. No option can be granted under the Incentive Plan after June 20, 2023.
