Eligibility to Receive Awards. All of our employees, officers and directors, as well as our consultants and advisors, are eligible to be granted Awards under the Amended and Restated 2015 Plan. As of March 31, 2018, approximately 78 individuals, including our employees, four executive officers and eight non-employee directors, were eligible to receive awards under the Amended and Restated 2015 Plan.
