NOTE 8: Equity Compensation Plans
Long Term Incentive Plan
On May 18, 2022, our stockholders approved our 2022 Long Term Incentive Plan (the "Incentive Plan") which provides for grants of equity and equity-based awards to our employees, officers, directors, consultants and other service providers, and such awards may take the form of restricted or unrestricted shares of common stock, non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs"), stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalents and other equity and cash-based awards. A maximum of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock (plus up to an additional 1,280,610 shares of our common stock, to the extent that shares subject to outstanding awards under the 2016 Long Term Incentive Plan, (the "Prior Plan") are recycled into the 2022 Incentive Plan) may be awarded, subject to customary adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits and similar corporate events or transactions affecting shares of our common stock.
Under the Incentive Plan and the Prior Plan, we have granted restricted shares, RSUs, and PSUs. These awards generally vest or vested over a two-to four-year period. In addition, we have granted unrestricted shares to our non-employee directors. These awards generally vest or vested immediately. A summary of restricted and unrestricted common share awards and RSU activity is presented below.

The outstanding award balances above include 127,989 and 163,348 RSUs as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.
On February 7, 2023, our compensation committee awarded 216,795 PSUs to our executive officers. The number of PSUs earned will be based on attainment of certain performance criteria over a three-year period, with the actual number of shares issuable ranging between 0% and 150% of the number of PSUs granted. Half of any PSUs earned will vest, and shares will be issued in respect thereof, immediately following the end of the three-year performance period; the remaining half of any PSUs earned will vest, and shares will be issued in respect thereof, after an additional one-year period of service.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, a portion of the RSUs and PSUs granted were issued to employees who are retirement eligible. The fact that the grantees are retirement eligible resulted in immediate recognition of the associated stock-based compensation expense totaling $2,677 and $2,422, respectively.
