STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

NOTE 9 - STOCK OPTIONS AND WARRANTS

EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

On April 12, 2022, our Board of Directors approved The Singing Machine Company, Inc. 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, or the (“2022 Plan”). The 2022 Plan provides for the issuance of equity incentive awards, such as stock options, stock appreciation rights, stock awards, restricted stock, stock units, performance awards and other stock or cash-based awards collectively, the “Awards.” Awards may be granted under the 2022 Plan to the Company’s employees, officers, directors, consultants, agents, advisors and independent contractors.

The maximum number of shares of common stock initially available for issuance under the 2022 Plan is 233,333 shares of common stock and thereafter an annual increase shall be added as of the first day of the Company’s fiscal year beginning in 2023, equal to the least of (i) 5% of the outstanding common stock on a fully diluted basis as of the end of the Company’s immediately preceding fiscal year, (ii) 333,334 shares, and (iii) a lesser amount as determined by the Board of Directors. The shares of common stock subject to stock awards granted under the 2022 Plan that lapse, terminate, expire prior to exercise, are canceled or are forfeited, shall again become available for issuance under the 2022 Plan.

The 2022 Plan authorized an aggregate of 233,333 shares of the Company’s common stock available to the Company’s employees, officers, directors, consultants, agents, advisors and independent contractors. As of June 30, 2022 we had granted 99,751 under the 2022 Plan, none of which were vested leaving 133,582 shares available for issue.

The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the assumptions outlined below. The expected volatility is based upon historical volatility of our stock and other contributing factors. The expected term is based upon observation of actual time elapsed between date of grant and exercise of options for all employees. The following inputs were used to value each option grant:

● For the three months ended June 30, 2022: expected dividend yield of 0%, risk-free interest rate between 2.63% and 3.21%, respectively with volatility between 166.1% and 176.27% respectively with an expected term of three years.
