the shareholders approved the
2015
stock option plan and the
1999,
2001

2015
stock option plan is intended to provide incentive to employees, directors, advisors and consultants of the Company to encourage proprietary interest in the Company, to encourage such employees to remain in the employ of the Company or such directors, advisors and consultants to remain in the service of the Company, and to attract new employees, directors, advisors and consultants with outstanding qualifications.

The Board of Directors determines the terms of the options granted, including the number of options granted, the exercise price and their vesting schedule. The maximum term possible is
10
years. Under the
2015
plan we have reserved
10%
of the number of Shares of the Company issued and outstanding as of each Award Date. During the year ended
December 31, 2020,
the Rolling Stock Option plan was amended by inclusion of an Israeli Taxpayers Appendix.
