9. Stock incentive plans

 

In March, 2011, our board of directors approved the 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (“2011 Plan”) under which 5,511,288 shares of common stock are reserved for issuance.  The 2011 Plan provides for the grant of incentive and nonstatuatory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares of our common stock, stock units, and performance cash awards.  As of January 1 of each year commencing in 2012, the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under our stock incentive plan shall automatically be increased by a number equal to the lesser of (a) 4.5% of the total number of shares of common stock then outstanding, (b) 3,000,000 shares of common stock and (c) as determined by our board of directors.

 

No further awards will be made under our 2001 Plan, and it will be terminated.  Options outstanding under the 2001 Plan will continue to be governed by their existing terms.

 

The significant assumptions used for newly issued stock option grants for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were an expected term of 6.1 years, an expected volatility of 49.9%, a risk free rate of return of 1.1% and no expected dividends.
