Equity Incentive Plan

The Company has in effect the Amended 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (“2015 Incentive Plan” or “Plan”). The 2015 Incentive Plan was adopted in December 2015 by the Company’s stockholders and an amendment to the Plan to increase the number of authorized shares issuable to 266,667 shares was approved by the Company’s stockholders in December 2021. Under the 2015 Incentive Plan, the compensation committee of the Board is authorized to grant stock-based awards to directors, officers, employees and consultants. The Plan authorizes grants to issue up to 266,667 shares of authorized but unissued common stock and expires 10 years from adoption and limits the term of each option to no more than 10 years from the date of grant. As of September 30, 2022, there are 122,489 shares available to be issued under the Plan.
