Stock Options and Performance Share Units | 15. Stock Options and Performance Share Units Under the Company’s 2015, 2021 and 2022 Equity Incentive Plans, the number of shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the option plan shall not exceed 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of the Company, have a maximum term of 10 years, and vest at the discretion of the Board of Directors. All equity-settled, share-based payments are ultimately recognized as an expense in the statement of operations with a corresponding credit to “Additional Paid in Capital.” If vesting periods or other non-market vesting conditions apply, the expense is allocated over the vesting period, based on the best available estimate of the number of share options expected to vest. Estimates are subsequently revised if there is any indication that the number of share options expected to vest differs from previous estimates. Any cumulative adjustment prior to vesting is recognized in the current period. No adjustment is made to any expense recognized in prior periods if share options ultimately exercised are different than that estimated on vesting.
