Stock-Based Compensation | 15. Stock-Based Compensation In September 2016, the Company adopted the 2016 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2016 Plan”) and merged the 2014 Equity Compensation Plan (the “2014 Plan”) into the 2016 Plan on September 28, 2016. No additional grants were made thereafter under the 2014 Plan. Outstanding grants under the 2014 Plan will continue in effect according to their terms as in effect before the merger with the 2016 Plan, and the shares with respect to outstanding grants under the 2014 Equity Plan will be issued or transferred under the 2016 Plan. The 2016 Plan authorizes the issuance or transfer of up to the sum of the following: (1) 800,000 new shares, plus (2) the number of shares of common stock subject to outstanding grants under the 2014 Equity Plan as of the effective date of the 2016 Plan; provided, however, that the aggregate number of shares of the Company’s common stock that may be issued or transferred under the 2016 Plan pursuant to incentive stock options may not exceed 800,000. During the term of the 2016 Plan, the share reserve will automatically increase on the first trading day in January of each calendar year, beginning in calendar year 2017, by an amount equal to the lesser of 5% of the total number of outstanding shares of common stock on the last trading day in December of the prior calendar year or such other number set by the Board. During 2018, in accordance with the terms of the 2016 Plan, the share reserve increased by 964,876 shares. As of June 30, 2018, 697,813 shares were available for future grants under the 2016 Plan. The option price per share cannot be less than the fair market value of a share on the date the option was granted, and in the case of incentive stock options granted to an employee owning more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company, the option price shall not be less than 110% of the fair market value of Company stock on the date of grant. Stock option grants under the Plan generally expire 10 years from the date of grant, other than incentive stock option grants to 10% shareholders, which expire the earlier of 5 years from the date of grant, 90 days after termination, or one year after the date of death or termination due to disability. Stock options generally vest over a period of four years, with 25% of the options becoming exercisable on the one year anniversary of the commencement date and the remaining shares vesting monthly thereafter for 36 months in equal installments of 2.08% per month.
