Note 15 - Equity Incentive Plan

 

2023 Equity Incentive Plan
 

On May 18, 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved the adoption of the Aytu BioPharma, Inc. 2023 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Equity Incentive Plan”), which replaced all previous plans. For the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan, the stockholders approved (a) 200,000 new shares; (b) 87,155 shares “rolled over” to the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan from plans replaced by the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan; and (c) any shares that are returned to the Company under plans replaced by the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan to be added to the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan. On May 21, 2025, the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment (the “Plan Amendment”) to the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan. The Plan Amendment increased the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan by 300,000 shares to bring the total number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan to 500,000 shares, not including unissued shares from available awards under prior plans or any returned shares. The Plan Amendment became effective immediately upon approval by the Company’s stockholders and the Company plans to register the 300,000 shares pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-8 to be filed with the SEC in fiscal 2026. With the approval of the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan, no additional awards will be granted under any previous plans. All outstanding awards previously granted under previous stock incentive plans will remain outstanding and subject to the terms of the plans.

 

Stock options granted under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan and previous plans typically have contractual terms of 10 years or less from the grant date and a vesting period ranging from one to four years. The restricted stock and restricted stock units granted under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan typically have a vesting period of three to four years and restricted stock and restricted stock units granted from previous plans typically have a vesting period ranging from four to 10 years and four years, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, the Company had 397,409 shares available for grant under the 2023 Equity Incentive Plan.
