STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS |
STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS | 19. STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS The Company uses the modified prospective method for accounting for stock-based compensation and recognized $50,000 of compensation expense for the year 2022, $43,000 in 2021 and $3,000 in 2020. During 2021, the Company’s Board adopted, and its shareholders approved, the AmeriServ Financial, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the Plan) authorizing the grant of options or restricted stock covering 600,000 shares of common stock. This Plan replaced the expired 2011 Stock Incentive Plan. Under the Plan, options or restricted stock can be granted (the Grant Date) to directors, officers, and employees that provide services to the Company and its affiliates, as selected by the compensation committee of the Board. The option price at which a granted stock option may be exercised will not be less than 100% of the fair market value per share of common stock on the Grant Date. The maximum term of any option granted under the Plan cannot exceed 10 years. Generally, options vest over a three-year period and become exercisable in equal installments over the vesting period. At times, options with a one year vesting period may also be issued. A summary of the status of the Company’s Equity Incentive Plan at December 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020, and changes during the years then ended is presented in the table and narrative following: ​
