The market stock units (MSUs) granted during the six months ended June 30, 2014 primarily vest in three equal annual increments beginning on the anniversary of the grant date. For these grants, the performance multiplier is derived based on the stock price growth rate between the 30 calendar day average closing stock price on the grant date and the 30 calendar day average closing stock price leading up to and including each of the three vesting dates. These awards may ultimately earn between 0% and 200% of the target number of units granted based on actual stock performance. Any performance multiplier less than 50% results in no shares being earned for that respective tranche.
During the first quarter of 2014, we began granting awards for performance-vested restricted stock units (PUs), which can be settled in cash or shares of our common stock at the sole discretion of the Compensation and Management Development Committee of the Board of Directors. PUs awarded to employees vest in three equal annual increments beginning on the anniversary of the grant date. The number of PUs granted represents the target number of units that are eligible to be earned based on the attainment of certain performance measures established at the beginning of the performance period, which ends on December 31st of each year. Participants may ultimately earn between 0% and 200% of the target number of units granted based on the degree of actual performance metric achievement, with no units being earned if the performance multiplier is below 50%. Accordingly, additional PUs may be issued or currently outstanding PUs may be cancelled upon final determination of the number of units earned. Settlement of PUs is based on the 30 calendar day average closing stock price through each vesting date once the actual vested and earned number of units is known.
In addition, for the six months ended June 30, 2014, approximately 112,000 shares were issued under our employee stock purchase plan (ESPP) compared to approximately 160,000 shares issued in the prior year comparative period.
