Approval of 2014 Equity Incentive Plan
General. On November 21, 2014, the shareholders of Electromed, Inc. (the Company) approved the adoption of the Companys 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the 2014 Plan). The principal provisions of the 2014 Plan are summarized below. This summary is not a complete description of all of the 2014 Plans provisions, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2014 Plan which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1. The 2014 Plan replaces the Companys 2012 Stock Incentive Plan and no further awards will be made pursuant to such plan.
Purpose and Eligible Participants. The purpose of the 2014 Plan is to promote the success of the Company and its affiliates by facilitating the employment and retention of competent personnel and by furnishing incentives to those employees, directors, and consultants upon whose efforts the success of the Company and its affiliates will depend to a large degree, provided, however, that only employees are eligible to receive incentive stock options.
Types of Awards. The 2014 Plan permits the Administrator to grant incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock awards, and restricted stock units.
Reserved Shares. The stock to be awarded or optioned under the 2014 Plan shall consist of authorized but unissued shares of common stock. The maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock reserved and available for awards under the 2014 Plan is six hundred fifty thousand (650,000) shares, provided, however, that all shares of stock reserved and available under the 2014 Plan shall constitute the maximum aggregate number of shares of stock that may be issued through incentive stock options.
Annual Award Limits. For all awards intended to qualify as performance-based compensation pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, the following maximum annual award limits apply: (i) the maximum number of shares of common stock subject to options granted in any one calendar year to any one participant shall be, in the aggregate, seventy-five thousand (75,000) shares, subject to adjustment for certain corporate events; and (ii) the maximum grant with respect restricted stock awards and restricted stock units in any one calendar year to any one participant shall be, in the aggregate, thirty-five thousand (35,000).
Performance-Based Compensation. For awards intended to be performance based compensation, the Board intends to use one or more of the following business criteria as the basis of the performance goals, including but not limited to (i) revenue or net sales, (ii) operating income, (iii) net income (before or after taxes), (iv) earnings per share, (v) earnings before or after taxes, interest, depreciation and/or amortization, (vi) gross profit margin, (vii) return measures (including, but not limited to, return on invested capital, assets, capital, equity, sales), (viii) increase in revenue or net sales, (ix) operating expense ratios, (x) operating expense targets, (xi) productivity ratios, (xii) gross or operating margins, (xiii) cash flow (including, but not limited to, operating cash flow, free cash flow, cash flow return on equity and cash flow return on investment), (xiv) working capital targets, (xv) capital expenditures, (xvi) share price (including, but not limited to, growth measures and total shareholder return), (xvii) appreciation in the fair market value or book value of the common stock, (xviii) debt to equity ratio or debt levels, and (xix) market share, in all cases including, if selected by the administrator, threshold, target and maximum levels.
Amendments. The Board may from time to time, insofar as permitted by law, suspend or discontinue the 2014 Plan or revise or amend it in any respect. However, except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation or as except as provided under the 2014 Plan itself, the Board may not, without shareholder approval, revise or amend the 2014 Plan to (i) materially increase the number of shares subject to the 2014 Plan, (ii) change the designation of participants, including the class of employees, eligible to receive awards, (iii) decrease the price at which options may be granted, (iv) cancel, regrant, repurchase for cash, or replace options that have an exercise price in excess of the fair market value of the common stock, or amend the terms of outstanding options to reduce their exercise price, (v) materially increase the benefits accruing to participants under the 2014 Plan, or (v) make any modification that will cause incentive stock options to fail to meet the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 422.
- 2 -
Term. The Administrator may grant awards pursuant to the 2014 Plan until it is discontinued or terminated; provided, however, that incentive stock options may not be granted after September 18, 2024.
Change of Control. Unless otherwise provided in the terms of an award, upon a change of control of the Company, as defined in the 2014 Plan, the administrator may provide for one or more of the following: (i) the acceleration of the exercisability, vesting, or lapse of the risks of forfeiture of any or all awards (or portions thereof), (ii) the complete termination of the 2014 Plan and the cancellation of any or all awards (or portions thereof) which have not been exercised, have not vested, or remain subject to risks of forfeiture, as applicable in each case as of the effective date of the change of control, (iii) that the entity succeeding the Company by reason of such change of control, or the parent of such entity, shall assume or continue any or all awards (or portions thereof) outstanding immediately prior to the change of control or substitute for any or all such awards (or portions thereof) a substantially equivalent award with respect to the securities of such successor entity, as determined in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, or (iv) that participants holding outstanding awards shall become entitled to receive, with respect to each share of common stock subject to such award (whether vested or unvested, as determined by the administrator pursuant to the 2014 Plan) as of the effective date of any such change of control, cash in amount equal to (1) for participants holding options, the excess of the fair market value of such common stock on the date immediately preceding the effective date of such change of control over the exercise price per share of options, or (2) for participants holding awards other than options, the fair market value of such common stock on the date immediately preceding the effective date of such change of control. The administrator need not take the same action with respect to all awards (or portions thereof) or with respect to all participants.
Forms of Agreement. The Board has approved forms of agreement to govern incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock unit awards awarded under the 2014 Plan. The forms of agreement governing incentive stock options and the nonqualified stock options provide that the option will be forfeited upon a termination for cause or upon the expiration of a three-month period following a termination for any reason other than cause, disability or death. The forms of agreement define Cause as (i) the conviction of participant for the commission of any felony, (ii) the commission by participant of any crime involving moral turpitude (e.g., larceny, embezzlement) which results in harm to the business, reputation, prospects or financial condition of the Company or any affiliate, or (iii) a disciplinary discharge pursuant to the terms of the Companys management handbooks or policies as in effect at the time. In addition, the forms of agreement provide that the participant may, at the administrators discretion, exercise the option by delivering cash or previously acquired shares, requesting that shares underlying the option be withheld to satisfy the exercise price and any applicable withholding obligations, broker assisted cashless exercise, or any combination thereof. The form of agreement governing restricted stock awards and restricted stock unit awards provides that upon a separation from service, the participant will forfeit any shares or units for which the risks of forfeiture have not yet lapsed or which have not yet vested.
The foregoing summaries of the 2014 Plan and the forms of agreements do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the text of the 2014 Plan, the form of incentive stock option agreement, the form of nonqualified stock option agreement, the form of restricted stock agreement, and the form of restricted stock unit agreement, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 10.4 and 10.5, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
