 amended and restated from time to time, the "2006 Plan"), which provides for the issuance of stock options, PSUs, RSUs, other equity-based awards and cash awards to the Company's directors, employees, consultants and advisors. Also in 2006, the Company's stockholders approved the Non-Employee Directors Stock Plan (the "Directors Plan") for non-employee directors, which was subsequently merged into the 2006 Plan. The Company's stockholders approved amendments to the 2006 Plan in May 2006 and May 2023, including an increase in the authorized shares. A total of 11,479,192 shares are reserved under the 2006 Plan. At December 31, 2024, 2,205,922 shares of the Company's stock were available for future grant under the 2006 Plan. The Company may grant stock options only at an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value of its common stock on the date of grant. Equity awards generally vest over periods of one to three years and, in the case of stock options, generally expire ten years after the date of the grant. The vesting of awards under the 2006 Plan accelerate following the occurrence of certain change of control events if the participant's employment is terminated within two years by the Company without cause or by the participant for good reason or if an entity acquires control of the Company and does not agree to assume existing awards or replace with equivalent value awards. Awards granted to non-employee directors automatically become vested upon a change of control. All shares issued under the 2006 Plan are registered shares, newly issued by the Company.The Company granted certain RSUs and PSUs to executive officers and other senior managers. The RSUs provide for time-based vesting of a fixed number of shares generally over three years. The PSUs provide the holder with the right to receive shares of the Company's common stock after the applicable award vesting period, generally three years. The final number of shares, if any, delivered upon vesting of PSUs are determined over the relevant performance period, generally three years. Outstanding PSUs as of December 31, 2024 are based on financial metrics. In the case of TSR PSUs, performance was measured by the Company's total shareholder return over the performance period compared to the S&P 1500 Composite / Electronic Equipment & Instruments Index. In the case of all other PSUs, performance is measured against internal financial metrics established by the Company's Board
