The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense related to common stock optio ns of $0.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2023.

Restricted Stock Restricted stock awards represent a right to receive shares of common stock at a future date determined in accordance with the participant’s award agreement. There is no exercise price and no monetary payment required for receipt of restricted stock awards or the shares issued in settlement of the award. Instead, consideration is furnished in the form of the participant’s services to the Company. Compensation cost for these awards is based on the fair value of the shares of common stock on the date of grant and recognized as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. On June 1, 2018, the Company granted 600,000 shares of Company restricted common stock in connection with the Addendum to the Employment Agreements of David Ludwig and Tom Ludwig. The shares are subject to certain restrictions on transfer and a right of repurchase over five years, ending May 31, 2023, and require a continued term of service to the Company. On March 30, 2021, the Company and Scott West entered into a Separation Agreement and General Release (the “Separation Agreement”). Under the terms of the Separation Agreement, Mr. West’s separation from the Company was effective on March 31, 2021. On April 8, 2021, the Company granted 25,000 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock, for which the risk of forfeiture lapsed on April 8, 2023. In addition, the Separation Agreement provides for customary mutual releases by the Company and Mr. West, and the Separation Agreement includes confidentiality, non-disparagement and other obligations. The full amount of the restricted common stock was expensed as of March 31, 2021. On August 3, 2022, the Company granted 115,000 shares of Company restricted common stock to non-executive directors under the 2022 Heritage Global Inc. Equity Incentive Plan. Of these restricted stock shares granted during 2022, 40,000 shares were granted with a vesting term that was completed prior to the grant date due to a delay in the Company’s ability to grant such shares, and the remaining 75,000 shares vested in full on March 31, 2023. On March 1, 2023, the Company granted 97,290 shares of Company restricted common stock to employees under the 2022 Heritage Global Inc. Equity Incentive Plan. The restricted stock shares vest on March 1, 2024. On March 31, 2023, the Company granted 75,000 shares of Company restricted common stock to non-executive directors under the 2022 Heritage Global Inc. Equity Incentive Plan. The restricted stock shares vest on March 31, 2024. The Company determined the fair value of the shares awarded by using the closing price of our common stock as of the grant date. Stock-based compensation expense related to the restricted stock awards was approximately $57,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2023. The unrecognized stock-based compensation expense as of March 31, 2023, was approximately $0.2 million.
