Equity Compensation Plan Information

There were no options, warrants or rights outstanding under plans approved by our shareholders and plans or arrangements that were not approved by our shareholders, as of December 31, 2022.

These plans and arrangements are:

• Shareholder-Approved Plans :

We have two shareholder-approved equity compensation plans:

(1) the 2020 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2020 LTIP”) and (2) the 2011 Long-Term Incentive Compensation Plan, which expired on April 19, 2021 but under which the Company ceased making grants or other awards upon our shareholders’ approval of the 2020 LTIP on April 27, 2020.

The 2020 LTIP authorizes the Company to make grants and awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock and restricted stock units to directors, officers and employees designated for participation in the plan.

As of December 31, 2022, an aggregate of 836,241 shares of unvested restricted stock remained outstanding under both plans, while there were no options or other securities outstanding under either plan as of such date.

• Non-Shareholder Approved Plans and Arrangements :

The only equity compensation plan or arrangement currently in force that was not approved by our shareholders is our Deferred Stock Unit Plan (the “DSU Plan”).

Under this plan, deferred compensation is used to “purchase” units representing shares of our common stock at fair market value.

An aggregate of 467,500 shares of Company common stock are reserved for issuance;

as of December 31, 2022, units representing an aggregate of 322,226 shares of common stock have been allocated to accounts, some of which has been distributed in the form of common stock.

From time to time, the Company enters into employment agreements which may include commitments by the Company to make awards of equity under the Company’s long-term incentive compensation plans, either stated in terms of a fixed number of shares or a percentage of the employee’s base compensation.

The table below reports shares remaining available for issuance under our equity compensation plans:
