NOTE 5 – EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION:

The 2020 Graham Corporation Equity Incentive Plan (the "2020 Plan"), as approved by the Company’s stockholders at the annual meeting of stockholders on August 11, 2020, provides for the issuance of 422 shares of common stock in connection with grants of incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock units and stock awards to officers, key employees and outside directors. The shares available for issuance under the 2020 Plan include 112 shares that remained available under the Company’s prior plan, the Amended and Restated 2000 Graham Corporation Incentive Plan to Increase Shareholder Value (the"2000 Plan"), at the time the 2020 Plan was adopted. As of August 11, 2020, the effective date of the 2020 Plan, no further awards will be granted under the 2000 Plan. However, 13 shares of unvested restricted stock under the 2000 Plan remains subject to the terms of such plan until the time such shares of restricted stock vest or are forfeited.
