The 2014 Plan is an &#8220;omnibus&#8221; stock plan that provides for a variety of equity award vehicles to maintain flexibility. The 2014 Plan permits the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted share awards, restricted share units and unrestricted share awards. The 2014 Plan does not permit the re-pricing of options or stock appreciation rights without the approval of stockholders and does not contain an &#8220;evergreen&#8221; provision to automatically increase the number of shares issuable under the 2014 Plan, except for certain adjustments resulting from stock splits and other specified events. </span></p><h1 dir="ltr" style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', 'serif';font-size: 10pt;line-height: 108%;margin-bottom: 0;margin-left: 0;margin-right: 0;margin-top: 9pt;text-indent: 0.00in;"><span style="white-space:pre-wrap;

Item 5.02.
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
At the AtriCure, Inc. (the "Company") Annual Meeting of Stockholders which was held on May 20, 2020, the stockholders of the Company approved the AtriCure, Inc. 2014 Stock Incentive Plan Amended and Restated as of May 20, 2020 (the "2014 Plan"). The 2014 Plan was previously approved by the Board of Directors subject to stockholder approval. The 2014 Plan was amended to increase the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under it from 4,350,000 to 5,250,000.
The objectives of the 2014 Plan are to provide long-term incentives to those persons with responsibility for the success and growth of the Company, to motivate participants to achieve the long-term success and growth of the Company, to provide a vehicle to tie a significant portion of compensation to the long-term performance of the Company's shares, to enable the company to attract and retain skilled and qualified officers, other employees, directors and consultants who are expected to contribute to the Company's success in a competitive market for such individuals, to facilitate ownership of the company's shares and to align the personal interests of officers, employees and others in the Company's long-term growth and profitability with the interests of the Company's stockholders. The 2014 Plan is an "omnibus" stock plan that provides for a variety of equity award vehicles to maintain flexibility. The 2014 Plan permits the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted share awards, restricted share units and unrestricted share awards. The 2014 Plan does not permit the re-pricing of options or stock appreciation rights without the approval of stockholders and does not contain an "evergreen" provision to automatically increase the number of shares issuable under the 2014 Plan, except for certain adjustments resulting from stock splits and other specified events.
The foregoing summary of the 2014 Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2014 Plan filed as an exhibit to this report.
Item 5.07.
