13. Equity Incentive Plan

Aytu 2015 Plan. On June 1, 2015, the Company’s stockholders approved the Aytu BioPharma 2015 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “Aytu 2015 Plan”), which, as amended in July 2017, provides for the award of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and other equity awards for up to an aggregate of 3.0 million shares of common stock. The shares of common stock underlying any awards that are forfeited, canceled, reacquired by Aytu prior to vesting, satisfied without any issuance of stock, expire or are otherwise terminated (other than by exercise) under the 2015 Plan will be added back to the shares of common stock available for issuance under the Aytu 2015 Plan. On February 13, 2020, the Company’s stockholders approved an increase to 5.0 million total shares of common stock in the Aytu 2015 Plan. Stock options granted under this plan have contractual terms of 10 years from the grant date and a vesting period ranging from 3 to 4 years. The restricted stock awards have a vesting period ranging from 4 to 10 years, whereas the restricted stock units have a vesting period 4 years. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had 2,792,139 shares that are available for grant under the Aytu 2015 Plan.

Neos 2015 Plan. Pursuant to the Neos Merger, the Company assumed 69,721 stock options and 35,728 restricted stock units (RSUs) previously granted under Neos plan. Accordingly, on April 19, 2021, the Company registered 105,449 shares of its common stock under the Neos Therapeutics, Inc. 2015 Stock Options and Incentive Plan (the "Neos 2015 Plan") with the SEC. The terms and conditions of the assumed equity securities will stay the same as they were under the previous Neos plan. In addition to the 105,449 registered shares to cover the assumed awards, the remaining 1,255,310 shares available under the legacy Neos plan was added back to the new Neos 2015 Plan. The Company allocated costs of the replacement awards attributable to pre- and post-combination service periods. The pre-combination service costs were included in the considerations transferred. The remaining costs attributable to the post-combination service period are being recognized as stock-based compensation expense over the remaining terms of the replacement awards. Stock options granted under this plan have contractual terms of 10 years from the grant date and a vesting period ranging from 1 to 4 years. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had 1,281,696 shares that are available for grant under the Neos 2015 Plan.
