The Restated Plan includes the following material changes to the Plan: (i) the Restated Plan eliminates the evergreen feature that historically provided for an annual increase in the Plan&#8217;s share reserve, (ii) the Restated Plan increases the number of shares of our common stock available for issuance under the Plan by 8,475,000 shares, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits and other similar events, (iii) the Restated Plan newly prohibits the repricing of options and stock appreciation rights (&#8220;SARs&#8221;) without stockholder approval, (iv) the Restated Plan newly permits the recycling of shares withheld to cover the exercise price or withholding taxes with respect to awards and would deplete the share pool only by shares actually used to settle SARs, (v) under the Restated Plan, the sum of all cash retainers and the reported value of equity compensation provided to the pool of all incumbent non-employee directors for their Board of Directors (the &#8220;Board&#8221;) service in a given year may not exceed an amount equal to one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the Company&#8217;s weighted average market capitalization for the prior three years (measured on an annual basis) times the number of incumbent non-employee directors; notwithstanding the foregoing, during their first year of service on the Board, newly-appointed or elected non-employee directors will not be included in the foregoing calculation in the year of their appointment and may receive a combination of cash retainers and equity compensation in connection with their initial appointment or election to the Board of up to two (2) times the average incumbent director compensation, (vi) the Restated Plan newly requires recipients of awards from and after June 8, 2022 to agree, upon receipt of an award, to be bound by any clawback policy that we have in effect or may adopt in the future, (vii) the Restated Plan newly requires that awards to non-employee directors must be granted and administered by a committee of the Board, all of the members of which are independent directors as defined by Nasdaq Marketplace Rules, (viii) the Restated Plan newly prohibits the grant of options and SARs with a provision entitling the award holder to the automatic grant of additional options or SARs in connection with any exercise of the original option or SAR, (ix) the Restated Plan newly prohibits the grant of options or SARs that provide for the payment or accrual of dividend equivalents, (x) the Restated Plan newly requires that any dividends or dividend equivalents paid with respect to restricted stock, restricted stock units or other stock-based awards must be subject to the same restrictions on transfer and forfeitability as the award with respect to which it is paid and (xi) the term of the Restated Plan will expire on June 7, 2032, unless extended by stockholder approval in the future, while the Plan was set to expire on June 3, 2023.</p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;min-height:12.0pt;margin:0pt;"><span style="visibility:hidden;">&#8203;</span></p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;min-height:12.0pt;margin:0pt;">The foregoing summary of the Restated Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Restated Plan, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. </p><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;min-height:12.0pt;margin:0pt;"><span style="visibility:hidden;">&#8203;</span></p><a id="_4ed4899e_032f_4f67_9aea_9680f1d1063c"></a><p style="font-family:'Times New Roman','Times','serif';font-size:10pt;min-height:12.0pt;margin:0pt;"><b style="font-weight:bold;">Item 5.07.

​
PTC Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company") held its Annual Meeting on June 8, 2022 (the "Annual Meeting"). At the Annual Meeting, the stockholders of the Company approved an amendment and restatement of the Company's 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan," and the Plan as so amended, the "Restated Plan"). The Restated Plan includes the following material changes to the Plan: (i) the Restated Plan eliminates the evergreen feature that historically provided for an annual increase in the Plan's share reserve, (ii) the Restated Plan increases the number of shares of our common stock available for issuance under the Plan by 8,475,000 shares, subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits and other similar events, (iii) the Restated Plan newly prohibits the repricing of options and stock appreciation rights ("SARs") without stockholder approval, (iv) the Restated Plan newly permits the recycling of shares withheld to cover the exercise price or withholding taxes with respect to awards and would deplete the share pool only by shares actually used to settle SARs, (v) under the Restated Plan, the sum of all cash retainers and the reported value of equity compensation provided to the pool of all incumbent non-employee directors for their Board of Directors (the "Board") service in a given year may not exceed an amount equal to one tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the Company's weighted average market capitalization for the prior three years (measured on an annual basis) times the number of incumbent non-employee directors; notwithstanding the foregoing, during their first year of service on the Board, newly-appointed or elected non-employee directors will not be included in the foregoing calculation in the year of their appointment and may receive a combination of cash retainers and equity compensation in connection with their initial appointment or election to the Board of up to two (2) times the average incumbent director compensation, (vi) the Restated Plan newly requires recipients of awards from and after June 8, 2022 to agree, upon receipt of an award, to be bound by any clawback policy that we have in effect or may adopt in the future, (vii) the Restated Plan newly requires that awards to non-employee directors must be granted and administered by a committee of the Board, all of the members of which are independent directors as defined by Nasdaq Marketplace Rules, (viii) the Restated Plan newly prohibits the grant of options and SARs with a provision entitling the award holder to the automatic grant of additional options or SARs in connection with any exercise of the original option or SAR, (ix) the Restated Plan newly prohibits the grant of options or SARs that provide for the payment or accrual of dividend equivalents, (x) the Restated Plan newly requires that any dividends or dividend equivalents paid with respect to restricted stock, restricted stock units or other stock-based awards must be subject to the same restrictions on transfer and forfeitability as the award with respect to which it is paid and (xi) the term of the Restated Plan will expire on June 7, 2032, unless extended by stockholder approval in the future, while the Plan was set to expire on June 3, 2023.
​
The foregoing summary of the Restated Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Restated Plan, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
