At the 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Century Casinos, Inc. (the “Company”) held on June 9, 2016, the Company’s stockholders approved the adoption of the Company’s 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Plan”). The Board of Directors of the Company had previously approved the 2016 Plan on April 26, 2016, subject to stockholder approval.
The 2016 Plan replaces the Company’s Amended and Restated 2005 Equity Incentive Plan, which expired in June 2015. The 2016 Plan authorizes the issuance of 3,500,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. Any shares of common stock subject to an award under the 2016 Plan that expires, is forfeited or cancelled, or is settled or paid in cash will, to the extent of such expiration, forfeiture, cancellation or cash settlement, automatically become available for future awards under the 2016 Plan. Awards under the 2016 Plan may be granted in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, stock units and other stock-based awards. The 2016 Plan is administered by the Company’s Compensation Committee, or, in certain cases, by the Company’s Board of Directors. Awards under the 2016 Plan may be granted to employees, consultants and advisors of the Company and its subsidiaries as well as non-employee directors of the Company.
The foregoing summary of the 2016 Plan is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the complete text of the 2016 Plan, which was included as Appendix A to the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 29, 2016 in connection with the Annual Meeting and is included herein as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference.
