At December 31, 2017, we had remaining authorization to repurchase $94.4 million of common shares. On January 25, 2018 our Board of Directors increased our repurchase authorization by $500.0 million. Under our stock-based compensation plans, we accept shares as payment under certain conditions related to stock option exercises and vesting of restricted shares and share units, generally related to the payment of tax obligations. During 2017, 2016, and 2015, employees surrendered shares valued at $6.0 million, $3.2 million, and $9.0 million, respectively, under these plans. Such share transactions are excluded from the above noted share repurchase authorization.
