Inducement Plan (the “Inducement Plan”) as of May 30, 2024; plus (h) the number of any shares subject to awards (other than stock options and stock appreciation rights) granted under the Inducement Plan that were outstanding and unvested on May 30, 2024 that are forfeited, terminated, cancelled or otherwise reacquired by the Company without having become vested; plus (i) any shares that are withheld or reacquired by the Company to satisfy the tax withholding obligations related to any awards (other than stock options and stock appreciation rights) granted under the Inducement Plan that were outstanding as of May 30, 2024; provided that in no event shall such maximum number of shares exceed 8,167,492 shares (which is the sum of the 6,240,000 shares set forth above in (a), (b) and (c), plus the number of shares that were available for grant under the 2013 Plan as of April 5, 2019, the date of Board approval of the 2019 Plan, plus the aggregate number of shares subject to awards previously granted and outstanding under the 2013 Plan as of April 5, 2019, plus the number of shares that were available under the Inducement Plan for additional award grant purposes as of February 3, 2024, plus the aggregate number of shares subject to awards (other than options and stock appreciation rights) previously granted and outstanding under the Inducement Plan as of February 3, 2024).
