12.  Employee Benefit Plan

 

The Company adopted the AxoGen Simple IRA plan (the “IRA Plan”) in 2007. All full-time employees who attained the age of 18 were eligible to participate in the Plan. Eligibility was immediate upon employment and enrollment was available any time during employment. Participating employees could make annual pretax contributions to their accounts up to a maximum amount as limited by law. The IRA Plan required the Company to make matching contributions of between 1% and 3% of the employee’s annual salary as long as the employee participated in the IRA Plan. Additionally, the matching was to be at least 3% for three of the first five years of the IRA Plan. Both employee contributions and Company contributions vested immediately. In 2015, the Company match was 3% of the participating employee’s annual salary. The Company contributed $172,089 in matching funds during 2015.  The Company terminated this IRA Plan in December 2015.
