Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e) On November 20, 2017, our Board of Directors approved the amendment and restatement of our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (as so amended and restated the “Amended and Restated ESPP”) to:

 

    confirm that the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors will administer the Amended and Restated ESPP,

 

    permit the issuance of fractional shares, rather than carrying forward amounts from period to period,

 

    reduce the per payroll deferral limit for participants in the Amended and Restated ESPP, and

 

    set an absolute limit on the number of shares that can be purchased by a participant in an offering period.

As of November 20, 2017, the total number of shares available for issuance under the Amended and Restated ESPP was 40,567. The adoption of the Amended and Restated ESPP did not result in an increase to the number of shares issuable under the Amended and Restated ESPP or expand the group of eligible participants in the Amended and Restated ESPP.

The foregoing description of the Amended and Restated ESPP does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by, reference to the full terms of the Amended and Restated ESPP, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
