Stock Options
During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and March 31, 2019, no stock options were exercised by officers or employees of the Company.
2011 Long-Term Incentive Stock Option Plan
On February 5, 2020 the Compensation & Long-Term Incentive Committee of the Company's Board of Directors ("Compensation Committee") approved stock option grants under the 2011 Long-Term Incentive Stock Option Plan ("the 2011 Plan"). Options for a total of 123,500 shares, with an exercise price of $12.995 per share, were granted under the 2011 Plan to certain management employees of the Company. The stock options will vest in 33 percent increments annually on a cumulative basis, beginning one year after the date of grant. In order for the options to vest, the employee must be in the continuous employment of the Company since the date of the grant. Except for death, disability, or qualifying retirement, any portion of the grant that has not vested will be forfeited upon termination of employment. The Company may terminate any portion of the grant that has not vested upon an employee's failure to comply with all conditions of the award or the 2011 Plan. Shares representing grants that have not yet vested will be held in escrow by the Company. An employee will not be entitled to any voting rights with respect to any shares not yet vested, and the shares are not transferable. The per share weighted-average fair value of this stock option grant was $4.53. The Black-Scholes model for this grant was based on a risk-free interest rate of 1.66 percent, an expected life of ten years, an expected volatility of 35.1 percent and a dividend yield of 1.79 percent.
Restricted Stock Awards
2015 Stock Awards Plan
On February 5, 2020, the Compensation Committee approved stock grants under the Company's 2015 Stock Awards Plan (the "Plan") to certain management employees of the Company where 45,418 shares with a market price of $12.995 per share were granted under the Plan. The stock awards vest in either 20 percent or 33 percent increments annually on a cumulative basis, beginning one year after the date of grant. In order for the awards to vest, the employee must be in the continuous employment of the Company since the date of the award. Except for death, disability, or qualifying retirement, any portion of an award that has not vested is forfeited upon termination of employment. The Company may terminate any portion of the award that has not vested upon an employee's failure to comply with all conditions of the award or the 2015 Stock Awards Plan. An employee is not entitled to any voting rights with respect to any shares not yet vested, and the shares are not transferable.
Performance-Based Restricted Stock Awards
In 2017, the Compensation Committee granted performance restricted stock awards (“2017 Performance Based Incentive Award”) to officers and certain key management-level employees. The 2017 Performance Based Incentive Award vested three years from the grant date based on continuous service, with the number of shares earned (0 percent to 150 percent of the target award) depending on the extent to which the Company achieved certain financial performance targets measured over the period from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2019. On February 5, 2020, the Compensation Committee approved the vesting of the 2017 Performance Based Incentive Award for a total of 28,481 restricted shares at a grant date market price of $12.30.
On February 5, 2020, the Compensation Committee approved performance-based restricted stock awards to certain management employees of the Company where 36,647 shares with a market price of $12.995 per share were granted under the Plan. The Company's performance-based restricted stock awards are classified as equity and contain performance and service conditions that must be satisfied for an employee to earn the right to benefit from the award. The performance condition is based on the achievement of the Company's Adjusted EBITDA targets. The fair value of the performance-based restricted stock awards are determined based on the closing market price of our stock on the date of grant. In general, 0% to 150% of the Company's performance-based restricted stock awards vest at the end of a three year service period from the date of grant based upon achievement of the performance condition specified. Except for death, disability, or qualifying retirement, any portion of an award that has not vested is forfeited upon termination of employment. The Company may terminate any portion of the award that has not vested upon an employee's failure to comply with all conditions of the award. An employee is not entitled to any voting rights with respect to any shares not yet vested, and the shares are not transferable.
