Amended and Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan
In April 2019, we adopted the 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”). In August 2021, we adopted, and our shareholders approved, the Amended and Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Amended 2019 Plan"), which amends and restates the 2019 Plan in its entirety. At our 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders on August 4, 2022, stockholders approved the Second Amended and Restated 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Second Amended 2019 Plan") which, among other things, increased the number of shares of Class A common stock authorized for issuance under the Amended 2019 Plan. Following the effect of the -one-for-20 Reverse Stock Split, the total number of shares of Class A common stock authorized for issuance is 1,100,000 shares.
The Second Amended 2019 Plan provides eligible participants with compensation opportunities in the form of cash and equity incentive awards. The Second Amended 2019 Plan is designed to enhance our ability to attract, retain and motivate our employees, directors, and executive officers, and incentivizes them to increase our long-term growth and equity value in alignment with the interests of our stockholders.
On April 26, 2023, the Board, subject to stockholder approval at the 2023 Annual Meeting, approved a third amendment and restatement of the 2019 Plan (the "Third Amended Plan"). If approved at the 2023 Annual Meeting, the Third Amended Plan would, among other things, increase the number of shares of Class A common stock authorized for issuance under the Second Amended 2019 Plan by 2,098,627 shares to an aggregate of 3,198,627 shares. For additional information about the Third Amended Plan, please see the Company's Definitive Proxy Statement filed with the SEC on April 27, 2023.
