STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION | NOTE 11 – STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION The Company issues stock options and restricted stock units to employees under Stock Awards Plans approved by stockholders. Stock options are issued to non-employee directors under Director Stock Option Plans approved by stockholders.

Restricted stock units generally vest over three years. Compensation expense recorded attributable to stock options for the first nine months of 2014 was approximately $15.0 million ($9.8 million after tax). The income tax benefit related to this compensation expense was approximately $5.2 million. Approximately $13.4 million of the compensation expense was recorded in selling, research & development and administrative expenses and the balance was recorded in cost of sales.
