Share-Based Compensation |
Share-Based Compensation | 13. Share-Based Compensation Incentive Plan Prior to June 2017, the Company made grants of restricted stock and stock options under its 2008 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”). In January 2017, the Board of Directors of the Company approved, and at the Company’s 2017 annual meeting of stockholders held on June 14, 2017, the Company’s stockholders adopted, a 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”) under which a maximum of 3,000 shares may be granted. As of September 30, 2019, 1,762 shares were available for grants under the 2017 Plan. All grants of equity incentives made after June 2017 have been made from the 2017 Plan. Restricted Stock During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company granted 149 shares of common stock with a service vesting condition to certain of its executives, officers and employees. The restricted shares have voting rights and vest in five annual installments of 20%, with the first installment vesting in March of the calendar year following the date of grant (the “first vesting date”) and subsequent installments vesting on each of the four anniversaries of the first vesting date. Upon vesting, shares will be held in lieu of taxes equivalent to the minimum statutory tax withholding required to be paid when the restricted stock vests. During the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company withheld 68 shares of common stock in lieu of taxes at a cost of $8,127 on the restricted stock vesting dates. In the nine months ended September 30, 2019, the Company granted 3 shares of common stock to the non-employee members of the Company’s Board of Directors. The restricted shares granted to these directors have voting rights and vest on the earlier of (a) the one-year anniversary of the date of grant or (b) immediately prior to the following year’s annual stockholders’ meeting. Included in this amount are the shares of common stock granted in August 2019 to two new non-employee members of the Company’s Board of Directors. The restricted shares granted to these directors have voting rights and vest on the one year anniversary of the date of grant.
