Good day, and welcome to the Calix Inc. Annual Meeting of Stockholders. I would now like to turn the call over to Corey Sinolair. Please go ahead, sir. Good morning.
It's my pleasure to welcome you to the twenty twenty Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Calix Inc. This is Corey Sindilar, Chief Financial Officer of Calix, and I will preside at this meeting. CALEX is pleased to once again conduct our Annual Meeting of Stockholders as a virtual meeting, and we thank you for joining us during these challenging times. While we will not make a formal company presentation, we will leave time at the end of the meeting for questions. Also present at today's meeting is Carl Russo, Kallax's President and Chief Executive Officer and member of our Board of Directors, along with Don Listwin, Chairman of our Board of Directors, and Calix board members Chris Bowick, Kevin DeNuccio, Mike Everett, Kathy Krusco, Kiera McNegan, Michael Matthews, Kevin Peters, and Dan Plants.
In addition, Richard Robbins, partner with KPMG LLP, Calix's independent registered public accounting firm, is present for any questions. Suzanne Tom, Calix's senior vice president and general counsel, will act as Secretary of the meeting. We have appointed Beth Vanderbeck of the Cardeo Group as to act as Inspector of Election. Ms. Vanderbeck has taken the customary oath of office and has delivered an affidavit of distribution establishing that notice of this meeting was properly given.
All stockholders of record at the close of business on 03/18/2020 are entitled to vote at this meeting. The Inspector of Election has examined the proxies received and reports that the holders of the majority of Calix common stock shares outstanding as of 03/18/2020 are represented at this meeting. Therefore, a quorum is present and we may proceed. The agenda for this meeting is displayed on the virtual meeting web page. I will now summarize the five proposals to be voted on today, which are described in more detail in our proxy statement.
As a reminder, you may view our proxy statement along with our annual report on Form 10 ks via the link on our virtual meeting web page. After summarizing the five proposals, I will invite questions on any of the proposals, which may be submitted to us online via the Ask a Question box in the lower left portion of your screen. If you have a question on any proposal, please enter it into that box and click Submit. We will answer questions regarding the proposal submitted online through the Ask a Question box. After the proposals have been summarized and questions addressed, I will open the polls for voting on all pending proposals.
If you have previously voted by proxy, you do not need to vote today unless you wish to change your vote. The first proposal is the election of three Class I directors to serve until our annual meeting of stockholders in 2023 or until their successors are elected and qualified. The CALEX Board of Directors recommends the election of Kathy Crusco, Kevin DeNuccio, and Michael Everett. No other director nominations were received, and the nominations are therefore closed. The second proposal is to approve our amended and restated 2019 equity incentive award plan to increase the number of shares of common stock issuable under the 2019 plan by 3,500,000 shares.
The Board of Directors recommends approval of this proposal. The third proposal is to approve our amended and restated 2017 non qualified employee stock purchase plan to amend certain terms and to increase the number of shares of common stock issuable under the plan by 1,200,000.0 shares. The Board of Directors recommends approval of this proposal. The fourth proposal is to approve on a non binding advisory basis the compensation of Calix's named executive officers as disclosed in our proxy statement. The Board of Directors recommends approval of this proposal.
The fifth proposal is to ratify the selection by our Audit Committee of KPMG LLP as Calix's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending 12/31/2020. The Board of Directors recommends the ratification of this selection. Are there any questions on any of these five proposals? I will pause for a moment to allow for transmittal of questions. Seeing no questions, we will proceed.
Voting on these proposals is by proxy and by online voting from those in attendance. The polls are now open. If you previously voted by proxy, you need not vote today unless you wish to change your vote. If you wish to vote today or change your proxy vote, you may do so on the meeting web page by clicking on the vote here link in the lower right portion of your screen. I will pause a few moments for you who are voting online today to complete the voting process.
