SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS
The Company maintains two share-based compensation plans: the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2011 Plan") and the 2025 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2025 Plan"). The purpose of the share-based compensation plans is to provide officers, employees, and non-employee members of the Board of Directors of the Company with additional incentive to further the success of the Company, and awards may consist of grants of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, deferred stock units and performance shares. All employees and members of the Board of Directors of the Company and its subsidiaries are eligible to participate in the Company's share-based compensation plans. The Company's share-based compensation plans allow for the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors to determine the type of incentive to be awarded, its term, manner of exercise, vesting and restrictions on shares. Generally, awards are nonqualified under the IRC, unless the awards are deemed to be incentive awards to employees at the Compensation Committee’s discretion.
At September 30, 2025, 440,000 shares of the Company's common stock were reserved for issuance under the 2025 Plan, of which 370,647 shares were available to be issued. No further shares will be issued under the 2011 Plan.
