Equity Compensation Plan Information

We currently maintain the following equity compensation plans that provide for the issuance of shares of our common stock to our officers and other employees, directors and consultants: the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2009 Plan”), and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, each of which has been approved by stockholders, and the Meru Networks, Inc. 2010 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Meru 2010 Plan”), which has not been approved by stockholders. The Meru 2010 Plan was assumed by Fortinet on July 8, 2015 pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger by and among Fortinet, Meru Network, Inc. and Malbrouck Acquisition Corp., dated as of May 27, 2015. We previously maintained the Amended and Restated 2000 Stock Plan (the “2000 Plan”) and the 2008 Stock Plan (the “2008 Plan”), both of which we terminated in connection with our initial public offering in 2009. The termination of the 2000 Plan and 2008 Plan did not affect awards outstanding under such plans, which continued to be governed by the terms and conditions of the respective plans. As of December 31, 2017, there were no awards outstanding under either the 2000 Plan or the 2008 Plan.

The following table summarizes the number of outstanding options and rights and number of securities remaining available for future issuance under our equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2017.
