Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On May 23, 2006, Infinity Energy Resources, Inc. (“Infinity”) held its annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) as discussed in Item 8.01 below. At the Annual Meeting, stockholders approved the adoption of the 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”). The 2006 Plan had been adopted by Infinity’s board of directors in March 2006, subject to stockholder approval. The 2006 Plan provides for an aggregate of four hundred seventy thousand (470,000) shares of Infinity’s common stock (“Common Stock”) to be available for issuance. The 2006 Plan will be terminated no later than May 23, 2016.
The 2006 Plan permits the award of stock options to any employee, officer, director or consultant of Infinity. The 2006 Plan will be administered by the board of directors, or one or more committees appointed by the board of directors. (The appropriate acting body, be it the board of directors or a committee within its delegated authority is referred to as the “Administrator”). Subject to the terms of the 2006 Plan, the Administrator determines the persons to whom stock options are granted, the number of shares granted, the vesting schedule, if any, and the type of consideration to be paid to Infinity upon the exercise of the stock option.
The Administrator may grant both incentive stock options (“ISOs”) intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and non-statutory stock options (“NSOs”). ISOs may be granted only to persons who are employees of Infinity, while NSOs may also be granted to persons who are directors or consultants. Each option must be granted at an exercise price of no less than 100% of the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of the grant. Any option granted under the 2006 Plan generally must have a term no greater than ten years. The Administrator may also grant awards constituting shares of restricted stock on such terms as the Administrator shall deem appropriate, subject to the terms and conditions of the 2006 Plan.
In addition, on May 23, 2006, pursuant to the terms of the 2006 Plan and previously adopted plans, the Administrator granted options for the purchase of 340,000 shares of Common Stock to directors, officers and employees of Infinity. The exercise price of each such option was equal to the closing price of Infinity’s Common Stock on May 23, 2006, or $6.48 per share. Each option will vest 100% on the one-year anniversary of grant or earlier upon a change of control. Each option expires ten years from the date of grant.
