Stock Option Plans

NOTE K — STOCK OPTION PLANS

In July 2004, the Board of Directors approved the adoption of the 2004 Stock Option Plan. The 2004 Stock Option Plan provides for the grant of options to purchase up to 750,000 shares of Milestone’s common stock. Options may be granted to employees, officers, directors and consultants of Milestone for the purchase of common stock of Milestone at a price not less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the grant. In general, options become exercisable over a three-year period from the grant date and expire five years after the date of grant.

 

In December 2007, the Board of Directors authorized Milestone to issue up to $2 million of its common stock to vendors or employees, and to grant them piggy back registration rights in the usual form, at a value of not less than 90% of the market value on the date of the agreement for the vendor or employee to accept said shares. Such future shares are not included in the above noted shares reserved for future issuance.  

 

In November 2009, the Board of Directors authorized 666,667 options be reserved for a special bonus to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, for obtaining a three year purchase order for the sale of 12,000 STA Instruments and related handpieces over a four year period. These options were reserved and 73,333 were granted but not vested in 2010. The remaining 593,334 were reserved until specific performance targets are achieved. The options will be issued upon achievement of the specific target on a yearly basis. The options were valued at $1.49 per share. The full performance requirements, for the 73,333 options, were met in 2013. Such options are fully vested as of December 31, 2013. The 593,334 options were cancelled in December 2013 due to expiration of the contract that gave rise to the granting of the options.

In June 2011, the Shareholders of the Company approved the 2011 Stock Option Plan (the “2011 Plan”) that provides for stock options to our employees, directors and consultants and incentive and non-qualified stock options to purchase up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock. Such future shares are included in the above noted shares reserved for future issuances.
