In addition, Richard Robbins and Rich Imersack, both partners with KPMG LLP, Calix's independent registered public accounting firm, are present for any questions.
We have appointed Beth Vanderbeck of the Cardeo Group to act as inspector of election. Miss 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 03/16/2021 are entitled to vote at this meeting. The inspector of election has examined the proxies received and reports that a holders of a majority of Calix's common stock outstanding as of 03/16/2021 are represented at this meeting. Further 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 six proposals to be voted on today, which are described in more detail in our proxy statement.

After summarizing the six proposals, I will invite questions on any of the proposals, which may be submitted to us online via the q and a button in the lower right portion of your screen. 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 to elect three class two directors to serve until our annual meeting of stockholders in 2024 or until their successors are elected and qualified. The CALX board of directors recommends the election of Don Listwin, Kevin Peters, and Dan Plants. 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 3,800,000 shares.
The board of directors recommend the approval of this proposal. The third proposal is to approve our amended and restated employee stock purchase plan to increase the number of shares of common stock issuable under the plan by 1,300,000.0 shares. The board of directors recommends approval of this proposal. The fourth proposal is to approve our amended and restated 2017 nonqualified employee stock purchase plan to increase the number of shares of common stock issuable under the plan by 800,000 shares. The board of directors recommends approval of this proposal.
The fifth proposal is to approve on a nonbinding advisory basis the compensation of Calix's named executive officers as described in our proxy statement. The board of directors recommends approval of this proposal. The sixth proposal is to ratify the selection of our audit committee of KPMG LLP as Calix's independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending 12/31/2021. The board of directors recommends the ratification of this selection. Are there any questions on any of these proposals?
Seeing no questions, we will proceed. Voting on these proposals is by proxy and by online voting for those in attendance. The polls are now open.
