On December 19, 2019, the Oblong, Inc. 2019 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”) was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The 2019 Plan is an omnibus equity incentive plan pursuant to which the Company may grant equity and cash incentive awards to certain key service providers of the Company and its subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2022, the share pool available for new grants under the 2019 Plan is 2,663,500.

During the three months ended March 31, 2022, 150,000 unvested stock options were forfeited. In accordance with the 2019 Plan, these cancelled unvested options were added back into the share pool.

The intrinsic value of vested options, unvested options and exercised options were not significant for all periods presented. Net stock compensation expense, related to stock options, for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was a negative $32,000 made up of $52,000 in expense and $84,000 in forfeiture credits. No stock compensation expense, related to stock options, was recorded for the three months ended March 31, 2021. The remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for options as of March 31, 2022 was $278,000, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.25 years.

Restricted Stock Awards

As of March 31, 2022 and 2021, there were 627 unvested restricted stock awards outstanding, with a weighted average grant date price of $15.80. The awards were issued in 2014 and vest over the lesser of ten years, a change in control, or separation from the company. Due to the variability of the vesting, the expense was amortized over an average service period of

five years, therefore, there is no unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for restricted stock awards as of March 31, 2022.

Restricted Stock Units

As of March 31, 2022 and 2021, there were no unvested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) outstanding. As of March 31, 2022, 28,904 vested RSUs remain outstanding as shares of common stock have not yet been delivered for these units in accordance with the terms of the RSUs.

There was no stock compensation expense related to RSUs for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021. There was no remaining unrecognized stock-based compensation expense for RSUs as of March 31, 2022.
