Stock Award Plans
The Company’s Board of Directors amended the Coherent Corp. 2018 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which originally was approved by the Company's shareholders at the Annual Meeting in November 2018, as the Coherent Corp. Omnibus Incentive Plan (as amended and restated, the “Plan”). The Plan was approved at the Annual Meeting in November 2023. The Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted share units, deferred shares, performance shares and performance share units to employees, officers and directors of the Company. The maximum number of shares of Coherent Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan is limited to 13,450,000 shares of Coherent Common Stock, not including any remaining shares forfeited under the predecessor plans that may be rolled into the Plan. Certain awards under the Plan have certain vesting provisions predicated upon the death, retirement or disability of the grantee.
On the Closing Date, the Company assumed the Coherent, Inc. Equity Incentive Plan (“Coherent, Inc. Plan”) and the Coherent, Inc. unvested restricted stock units (“Converted RSUs”) that are generally subject to the same terms and conditions that applied to the Converted RSUs immediately prior to the Closing Date. After the Closing Date, the Company granted restricted stock units under the Coherent, Inc. Plan through August 28, 2023. The Coherent, Inc. Plan was terminated upon adoption of the Plan in November 2023. No additional awards will be granted under the Coherent, Inc. Plan.
On June 3, 2024, the Board of Directors granted 147,214 restricted stock units vesting over three years from date of grant and 694,007 performance stock units vesting over the approximate three-year period ending June 30, 2027, to the new CEO. The grants were non-Plan “employment inducement awards” as contemplated by the New York Stock Exchange Listing Rule 303A.08 and therefore were not made pursuant to the Plan.
On October 11, 2024, the Board of Directors granted 15,902 and 63,154 restricted stock units vesting over three years and two years, respectively, from date of grant and 118,853 performance stock units vesting over the approximate three-year period ending June 30, 2027, to the new CFO. The grants were non-Plan “employment inducement awards” as contemplated by the New York Stock Exchange Listing Rule 303A.08 and therefore were not made pursuant to the Plan.
The Company has an Employee Stock Purchase Plan whereby eligible employees may authorize payroll deductions of up to 10%, or such other percentage up to 15% that the Company determines, of their regular base salary to purchase shares at the lower of 85% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of commencement of the offering or on the last day of the six-month offering period.
