Stock-Based Compensation | 6. Stock-Based Compensation On February 20, 2018, the Board of Directors approved and adopted the 2018 Equity Inducement Plan (“2018 Plan”) which became effective on the same date. The Board of Directors approved an initial reserve of 1,100,000 shares of common stock to be used exclusively for individuals who were not previously employees or directors, or following a bona fide period of non-employment, as an inducement material to the individual entering into employment with the Company. Nonqualified stock options or restricted stock units may be granted under the 2018 Plan at the discretion of the Compensation Committee or the Board of Directors. The Company did not seek stockholder approval of the 2018 Plan pursuant to Nasdaq Rule 5635(c)(4). The 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (“2016 Plan”) provides for an annual increase in the number of shares available for issuance thereunder, to be added on the first day of each fiscal year, beginning on January 1, 2017 and continuing through 2023, up to 4% of the outstanding number of shares of the Company’s common stock on the December 31 immediately prior to the date of increase, provided that an increase is only effective if the Company’s board of directors either confirmed the increase or approved the increase of a lesser number of shares prior to January 1 of each relevant year. As a result of this provision, on January 1, 2018 and January 1, 2017, an additional 666,807 and 537,233 shares, respectively, became available for issuance under the 2016 Plan. As of September 30, 2018, the 2016 Plan had 84,521 shares available for future issuance. During the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company issued an aggregate of 255,800 and 735,600 options to purchase common stock, respectively, under the 2016 Plan and 2018 Plan for an aggregate fair value of $1.7 million and $1.7 million, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,288,900 and 1,753,300 options to purchase common stock, respectively, under the 2016 Plan and 2018 Plan for an aggregate fair value of $7.1 million and $6.6 million, respectively. Under the Company’s 2016 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“2016 ESPP”), the Company issued and sold 24,977 shares for aggregate cash proceeds of $129,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 55,914 shares for aggregate cash proceeds of $207,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018. There were 20,990 shares issued and sold under the 2016 ESPP for aggregate cash proceeds of $53,000 during the three months ended September 30, 2017 and 39,174 shares for aggregate cash proceeds of $131,000 during the nine months ended September 30, 2017.
