Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Award and Incentive Plan

The Company’s Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Award and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) provides for the award of options to purchase the Company’s common stock (“stock options”), restricted stock units ("RSUs"), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, deferred stock, dividend equivalents, performance shares or other stock-based performance awards and other stock- or cash-based awards. Awards can be granted under the Plan to the Company’s employees, officers and non-employee directors, as well as consultants and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries.
On June 8, 2023, the Company's Board of Directors approved an amendment to the Plan (the "2018 Plan") to modify the one-year minimum vesting requirements.

Stock Options

A summary of the Company's stock option activity during the six months ended June 30, 2024 is below:
Shares Weighted average exercise price
Outstanding at January 1, 2024 35,599,421 $ 0.78 
Granted 60,000 $ 0.14 
Exercised $ — 
Forfeited (3,750) $ 0.44 
Expired (81,250) $ 0.81 
Outstanding at June 30, 2024 35,574,421 $ 0.78 

Stock options granted under the 2018 Plan generally expire five years from the date of grant. At June 30, 2024, the stock options outstanding had a weighted average remaining life of approximately two years.

The grant date fair value of the stock options granted in the six months ended June 30, 2024 was estimated using the Black-Scholes valuation model with the following assumptions:

Estimated life (in years)
1.18
Weighted average volatility 64.81%
Weighted average risk-free interest rate 5.12%
Dividend yield

Restricted Stock Units

Holders of unvested restricted stock units ("RSUs") do not have voting or dividend rights. The grant date fair values of RSUs are recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods. The fair value of RSUs is determined based on the market value of the shares of the Company's common stock on the date of grant.

The activity related to the Company's RSUs for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was as follows:
RSUs Weighted average grant date fair value
Unvested at January 1, 2024 5,825,538 $ 0.42 
Granted 744,056 $ 0.24 
Vested (1,286,007) $ 0.44 
Forfeited (250,487) $ 0.38 
Outstanding at June 30, 2024 5,033,100 $ 0.39 

Warrants

On May 2, 2024, the Company issued warrants to purchase 1,000,000 shares of the Company's common stock to an entity in consideration for introductory and other services rendered in connection with certain funding and acquisition transactions. The warrants have an exercise price of $0.32 per share, vested immediately, and expire on May 1, 2029. The Company calculated that the grant date fair value of the warrants was approximately $218,000 in the aggregate using the Black-Scholes valuation model. This expense is included as a component of Acquisition-related and other in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations for both the three and six months ended June 30, 2024.

At June 30, 2024, warrants to purchase up to 43,089,476 shares of the Company's common stock were outstanding, with a
weighted average exercise price of $0.67.
