Share-based compensation | 18. Share-based compensation 2010 share incentive plan In December 2010, the Group adopted a share incentive plan, which is referred to as the 2010 Share Incentive Plan (“the 2010 Plan”). The purpose of the plan is to attract and retain the best available personnel by linking the personal interests of the members of the board, employees, and consultants to the success of the Group’s business and by providing such individuals with an incentive for outstanding performance to generate superior returns for our shareholders. Under the 2010 Plan, the maximum number of shares in respect of which share options, restricted shares, or restricted share units may be granted is 26,822,828 shares (excluding the share options previously granted to the directors who are the founders of the Company). The amount of shares available for such grants as of December 31, 2019 is 8,315,463. The maximum term of any issued share option is seven or ten years from the grant date. Share options granted to employees and officers vest over a four-year schedule as stated below:
| (1) |  | One-fourth of the options shall be vested upon the first anniversary of the grant date;
| (2) |  | The remaining three quarters of the options shall be vested on monthly basis over the next thirty-six months. (1/48 of options shall be vested per month subsequently)
Share options granted to directors were subject to a vesting schedule of approximately 32 months. All share-based payments to employees are measured based on their grant-date fair values. Compensation expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. In November 2014, the Company issued to the depositary bank of 10,000,000 common shares, which were reserved for the future exercise of share options or vesting of restricted shares.
