On February 24, 2017, in connection with the IPO, the Company’s board of directors and shareholders approved an equity compensation plan, the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”), which became effective on March 9, 2017, to provide an additional incentive to selected officers, employees, non-employee directors, independent contractors and consultants of the Company (the “Participants”). The share awards granted by the Company under the 2017 Plan contain service conditions, and will generally vest based on a time-based vesting schedule determined by the administrator of the 2017 Plan. Certain awards also contain (1) performance conditions with respect to research and development progress or/and business development progress, or/and (2) market conditions with respect to the share price of the Company. Under the 2017 Plan, the maximum number of the Company’s ordinary shares reserved for issuance is 5,277,197 shares.
