| Stockholders' Equity | STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY: 2013 Stock Incentive Plan The Company’s 2013 Stock Incentive Plan was adopted by its Board of Directors and approved by its stockholders in 2013. The 2013 Stock Plan as amended and restated from time to time provides for the direct award or sale of shares of common stock, restricted stock awards, and restricted stock units, the grant of options to purchase shares of common stock and the award of stock appreciation rights to employees and non-employee directors and consultants. The number of authorized shares under the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan will not exceed the sum of 1,696 shares of common stock, plus any shares under the Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2003 Stock Incentive Plan") that are subject to outstanding awards granted to the extent those awards expire, terminate or are canceled for any reason prior to exercise without the issuance or delivery of such shares, any shares subject to vesting restrictions that are subsequently forfeited, and any reserved shares not issued or subject to outstanding awards, up to 2,750 shares. No participant in the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan may receive option grants or stock appreciation rights, restricted shares or restricted stock units for more than 1,500 shares per calendar year, or more than 2,500 shares in the participant’s first calendar year of service. The option price for incentive stock options will not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the stock on the date of grant. Under the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan, qualified employees are eligible for the grant of incentive stock options to purchase shares of common stock. Qualified employees and outside directors and consultants are eligible for the grant of nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock grants and restricted stock units. The outstanding stock options and restricted stock awards granted to qualified employees generally vest over a five-year period and the stock options have a contractual term of ten years. Stock options granted to qualified non-employee directors vest as to one third of the stock underlying the stock options on the first anniversary date of the grant and the remaining vest monthly over a two-year period starting one month after the first anniversary of the date of grant. The restricted stock granted to qualified non-employee directors vests one fourth on a quarterly basis over a one-year period. The holders of restricted stock awarded are entitled to the same voting, dividend and other rights as the Company’s common stockholders. Unless terminated sooner, the 2013 Stock Incentive Plan will terminate on March 19, 2023. 2003 Stock Incentive Plan The Company’s 2003 Stock Incentive Plan terminated in March 2013. The number of authorized shares under the 2003 Stock Incentive Plan was 14,120 shares of common stock. The equity awards outstanding under this plan as of November 30, 2015 continue to be governed by their existing terms. The outstanding stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units granted to qualified employees generally vest over a five-year period and the stock options have a contractual term of ten years. Certain restricted stock units could vest subject to the attachment of individual, divisional or Company-wide performance goals. Stock options and restricted stock awards granted to qualified non-employee directors vest over a period ranging from one year to three years. The exercise price of incentive stock option grants was equal to 100% of the fair market value of those shares on the date of the grant. The holders of restricted stock awarded are entitled to the same voting, dividend and other rights as the Company’s common stockholders. 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan On January 6, 2014, the Board of Directors approved the adoption of the 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("2014 ESPP") to succeed the 2003 ESPP.
