As of December 31, 2021, 15,246,831 shares of our Class A common stock were available for issuance pursuant to the 2021 Plan. The number of shares of our Class A common stock available for issuance under the 2021 Plan is subject to an annual increase on January 1 of each year beginning with the 2022 fiscal year, equal to the lesser of (i) 14,191,113 shares of our Class A common stock, (ii) 3% of the aggregate number of shares of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding (on a fully diluted basis) on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (iii) an amount determined by the Board. On January 1, 2022, pursuant to this annual “evergreen” increase, the shares available for issuance under the 2021 Plan was increased by 7,255,410 shares.
In the event of a Change in Control, as defined in the 2021 Plan, the Compensation Committee may take certain actions with respect to outstanding awards, including the continuation or assumption of awards, substitution or replacement of awards by a successor entity, acceleration of vesting and lapse of restrictions, determination of the attainment of performance conditions for performance awards or cancellation of awards in consideration of a payment.
2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Our Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) was approved by our stockholders in connection with our IPO and became effective on July 1, 2021. The ESPP is administered by the Compensation Committee and provides our employees and employees of participating subsidiaries with an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company through the purchase of shares of our Class A common stock. Currently, the ESPP is not intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). However, from and after such date as the Compensation Committee determines that the ESPP is able to satisfy the requirements under Section 423 of the Code and that it will operate the ESPP in accordance with such requirements, the ESPP will be intended to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code.
As of December 31, 2021, 4,567,246 shares of our Class A common stock were available for issuance under the ESPP. The number of shares available for issuance under the ESPP is subject to an annual increase on January 1 of each year, equal to the lesser of (i) 4,730,371 shares of our Class A common stock and (ii) 1% of the aggregate number of shares of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding (on a fully diluted basis) on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year. The overall maximum shares of our Class A common stock that may be issued under the ESPP (including shares added pursuant to the annual increase described above) is 35,477,782 shares. On January 1, 2022, pursuant to this annual “evergreen” increase, the shares available for issuance under the ESPP was increased by 2,418,470 shares.
Signify Health, Inc. Amended and Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan
In connection with our IPO, the stock options outstanding under the New Remedy Corp. Amended and Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan, a plan assumed by us in connection with the acquisition of Remedy Partners Inc., were converted into stock options with respect to shares of our Class A common stock, with the number of shares and the exercise price adjusted on a proportionate basis. In addition, the plan was amended and restated (and renamed the Signify Health, Inc. Amended and Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”)) to provide for the issuance of shares of our Class A common stock upon the exercise of such stock options. Following our IPO, no further grants have been or will be made under the 2019 Plan.
On March 1, 2022, the Board approved amendments to the performance-vesting stock options that were outstanding under the 2019 Plan to modify the vesting terms to impose an alternative two-year service-vesting condition, alongside the existing milestone-based vesting conditions, such that the stock options will become vested upon the earlier achievement of either the service-vesting condition or the performance-vesting condition. Vesting of these stock options will be subject in all cases to the employee’s continued employment with us through the applicable vesting date. These amendments were approved for the same reasons stated above under “—Incentive Units”.
Certain of our non-NEO executive officers hold stock options granted under the 2019 Plan. As of December 31, 2021, there were stock options outstanding under the 2019 Plan with respect to 4,696,987 shares of our Class A common stock, having a weighted-average exercise price of $6.07 per share.
