On May 12, 2022, the shareholders of CyberOptics Corporation (“CyberOptics”) approved amendments (the “Amendments”) to the CyberOptics Corporation 1998 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Employee Plan”). Any employee, officer, consultant or independent contractor of CyberOptics and its affiliates is eligible to receive an award under the Employee Plan. The Employee Plan permits the granting of a variety of different types of awards, including stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units, and dividend equivalents.

 

The Amendments made the following changes to the Employee Plan:

 

· Increase the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance pursuant to awards granted under the Employee Plan by 300,000 shares (i.e., increase the authorized shares from 1,825,000 to 2,125,000);

 

· Extend the term of the Employee Plan from May 20, 2027 to May 12, 2032;

 

· Make other changes to such plan so that its terms are consistent with current practices in structuring awards to achieve certain tax results and with certain current corporate governance practices.

 

A copy of the Employee Plan, as amended to date, is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and the above summary of the Employee Plan is qualified by reference to the copy of the plan filed as an exhibit to this report.
