STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

NOTE (9)   STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION PLANS

In June 2017, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2017 Stock Plan”) with a maximum of 5.5 million shares reserved for issuance. Awards permitted under the 2017 Stock Plan include: Stock Options and Restricted Stock. Awards issued under the 2017 Stock Plan are at the discretion of the Board of Directors. As applicable, awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant and generally vest over four years. Restricted Stock Awards are issued to the recipient upon grant and are not included in outstanding shares until such vesting and issuance occurs.

During the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, no stock option awards were granted under the 2017 Stock Plan. At March 31, 2023, the Company had 0.6 million stock options outstanding and exercisable under the following plans:

During the three months ended March 31, 2023, and 2022, 62,000 shares and 48,000 shares of restricted stock, respectively, were granted to management under the 2017 Stock Plan. The fair market value of restricted shares for share-based compensation expensing is equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. The vesting on the Restricted Stock Awards typically occurs quarterly over three years for the Board of Directors and quarterly or annually over two to four years for management.
