On June 6, 2024, the Company held its Annual Meeting and amended and restated the 2014 Plan (the "Restated 2014 Plan") to extend the term of the 2014 Plan until April 15, 2034, and to increase the total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance by 1,000 shares relative to the amount available for issuance at the time the 2014 Plan expired. As of September 30, 2024, the total number of shares authorized for grant under the Restated 2014 Plan was 4,724, of which 980 were available for future grants.
