2024 Employment Inducement Incentive Award Plan
On February 20, 2024, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of LENSAR, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the LENSAR, Inc. 2024 Employment Inducement Incentive Award Plan (the “Inducement Plan”). The terms of the Inducement Plan are substantially similar to the terms of the Company’s 2020 Incentive Award Plan, except that incentive stock options may not be issued under the Inducement Plan and awards under the Inducement Plan may only be issued to eligible recipients under the applicable Nasdaq Listing Rules. The Inducement Plan was adopted by the Board without stockholder approval pursuant to Rule 5635(c)(4) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules.
The Board has initially reserved 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the Inducement Plan. In accordance with Rule 5635(c)(4) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules, awards under the Inducement Plan may only be made to an employee who is commencing employment with the Company or any of its affiliates or who is being rehired following a bona fide interruption of employment by the Company or any of its affiliates, in any case if he or she is granted such award in connection with his or her commencement of employment with the Company or any of its affiliates and such grant is an inducement material to his or her entering into employment with the Company or any of its affiliates, as applicable.
The foregoing description of the Inducement Plan is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the Inducement Plan and the forms of stock option and restricted stock unit agreements, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, and incorporated by reference herein.
Executive Compensation
On February 21, 2024, the Board approved a 4% increase for each of Nicholas T. Curtis, Alan B. Connaughton and Thomas R. Staab, II in each such officer’s base salary, in each case effective January 22, 2024.
