Aerohive 2014 Equity Incentive Plan

Pursuant to the acquisition of Aerohive on August 9, 2019, the Company assumed the Aerohive 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (the "Aerohive Plan").  Stock awards outstanding under the Aerohive Plan were converted into awards for Extreme shares as of the Acquisition Date at a predetermined rate pursuant to the Merger Agreement. As of March 31, 2020, total awards to acquire 736,796 shares of Extreme common stock were outstanding under the Aerohive Plan. If a participant terminates employment prior to the vesting dates, the non-vested shares will be forfeited and retired. No future grants may be made from the Aerohive Plan.

During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2020, and 2019, the Company did not capitalize any share-based compensation expense in inventory, as the amounts were immaterial.

Stock Awards

Stock awards may be granted under the 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”) on terms approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board. Stock awards generally provide for the issuance of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) including performance or market-based RSUs which vest over a fixed period of time or based upon the satisfaction of certain performance criteria.  The Company uses the straight-line method for expense attribution.  The Company does not estimate forfeitures, but accounts for them as incurred.

The fair value of each stock option grant under the 2013 Plan and 2005 Equity Incentive Plan is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model.  The Company uses the Monte-Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value and the derived service period of stock awards with market conditions, on the date of the grant.  The expected term of options granted is derived from historical data on employee exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior.  The risk-free rate is based upon the estimated life of the option and the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility on the Company’s stock.  The average fair value per share of the options granted during the nine months ended March 31, 2020 was $6.70.

The fair value of each RSU grant with performance-based vesting criteria (“PSUs”) under the 2013 Plan is estimated on the date of grant using the Monte-Carlo simulation model to determine the fair value and the derived service period of stock awards with market conditions, on the date of the grant.

The RSUs granted during the nine months ended March 31, 2020 vest from the original grant date as to one-third (1/3) on the one-year anniversary and one-twelfth (1/12) each quarter thereafter, subject to continued service to the Company. These RSUs included 566,038 RSUs to named executive officers and directors.

During fiscal 2019 and 2018, the Company approved the grant of 0.6 million shares underlying stock awards each year in the form of PSU’s to named executive officers and other vice president level employees. These PSUs would be considered earned once the Company’s U.S. GAAP earnings aggregates at least $0.20 per share over two consecutive quarters (the “Performance Thresholds”). During the second quarter of fiscal 2020, the compensation committee of the Board modified the Performance Thresholds of $0.20 earnings per share over two consecutive quarters for PSUs issued in fiscal 2019 and 2018, to $0.09 earnings per share over two consecutive quarters. Upon satisfying the Performance Thresholds, the PSUs will vest with respect to the same number of RSUs that have vested which were granted on the same date and thereafter will vest on the same schedule as the RSUs, subject to continued service to the Company.  If the Performance Thresholds is not met by the third anniversary of the grant date for each award, that award is canceled.  During the nine months ended March 31, 2020, the 2019 and 2018 Performance Thresholds for outstanding performance awards were not achieved.  

 

 

2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The fair value of each share purchase option under the Companys 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes-Merton option valuation model with the weighted average assumptions noted in the following table.  The expected term of the ESPP represents the term of the offering period of each option.  The risk-free rate is based upon the estimated life and on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.  Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility on the Company’s stock.

There were 1,498,155 and 1,499,042 shares issued under the ESPP during the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. There were 2,721,699 and 2,779,750 shares issued under the ESPP during the nine months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The following assumptions were used to calculate the fair value of shares issued under the ESPP during the following periods:
