The Company’s 2007 Global Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”) was adopted by the board of directors on August 30, 2007. The 2007 Plan terminated upon the Company’s IPO on March 31, 2015 and no further awards may be granted thereunder. All outstanding awards will continue to be governed by their existing terms and 379,358 available options for future grant were transferred to the Company’s 2015 Global Incentive Plan (the “2015 Plan”) and are reserved for future issuances under the 2015 plan. The 2015 Plan became effective upon the consummation of the IPO. The 2015 Plan provides for the grant of options, RSUs, PSUs,and other share-based awards to directors, employees, officers and non-employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. As of December 31, 2021, a total of 15,406,316 shares of common stock were reserved for issuance pursuant to stock awards under the 2015 Plan (the “Share Reserve”).
The Share Reserve will automatically increase on January 1st of each year during the term of the 2015 Plan, commencing on January 1st of the year following the year in which the 2015 Plan becomes effective, in an amount equal to 5% of the total number of shares of capital stock outstanding on December 31st of the preceding calendar year; provided, however, that the Company’s board of directors may determine that there will not be a January 1st increase in the Share Reserve in a given year or that the increase will be less than 5% of the shares of capital stock outstanding on the preceding December 31st.
The aggregate maximum number of shares of common stock that may be issued on the exercise of incentive stock options is 10,000,000. As of December 31, 2021, an aggregate of 8,617,974 options are still available for future grant under the 2015 Plan.
The Company has also granted non-plan awards, which have been authorized by the Company's board of directors and granted as PSUs.

However, the Company’s board of directors may reduce the amount of the increase in any particular year at their discretion, including a reduction to zero.
The ESPP is implemented through an offering every six months. According to the ESPP, eligible employees may use up to 15% of their salaries to purchase common stock up to an aggregate limit of $15 per participant for every six months plan. The price of an ordinary share purchased under the ESPP is equal to 85% of the lower of the fair market value of the ordinary share on the subscription date of each offering period or on the purchase date.

As of December 31, 2021, 2,513,267 shares of common stock were available for future issuance under the ESPP.
In accordance with ASC No. 718, the ESPP is compensatory and, as such, results in recognition of compensation cost.
