10. | Stock-Based Compensation
The Company has a stock-based compensation plan known as the National Oilwell Varco, Inc. Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for the granting of stock options, performance-based share awards, restricted stock, phantom shares, stock payments and stock appreciation rights. The number of shares authorized under the Plan is 39.5 million. At September 30, 2014, 11,774,456 shares remain available for future grants under the Plan, all of which are available for grants of stock options, performance-based share awards, restricted stock awards, phantom shares, stock payments and stock appreciation rights. On February 25, 2014, the Company granted 3,113,607 stock options with a fair value of $25.60 per share and an exercise price of $74.83 per share; 426,272 shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units with a fair value of $74.83 per share; and performance share awards to senior management employees with potential payouts varying from zero to 436,390 shares. The stock options vest over a three-year period from the grant date while the restricted stock and restricted stock units vest on the third anniversary of the date of grant. The performance share awards can be earned based on performance against established goals over a three-year performance period. The performance share awards are divided into two equal, independent parts that are subject to two separate performance metrics: 50% with a TSR (total shareholder return) goal (the “TSR Award”) and 50% with an internal ROC (return on capital) goal (the “ROC Award”). Performance against the TSR goal is determined by comparing the performance of the Company’s TSR with the TSR performance of the members of the OSX index for the three year performance period. Performance against the ROC goal is determined by comparing the performance of the Company’s actual ROC performance average for each of the three years of the performance period against the ROC goal set by the Company’s Compensation Committee. On May 14, 2014, the Company granted 18,736 restricted stock awards with a fair value of $68.89 per share. The awards were granted to non-employee members of the board of directors and vest on the first anniversary of the grant date. On June 2, 2014, as a result of the spin-off and pursuant to the terms of the Employee Matters Agreement and the Plan, outstanding NOV stock-based awards held by continuing NOV employees were adjusted to generally preserve the intrinsic value of the original award. Outstanding NOV stock-based awards held by employees of NOW were converted into similar NOW stock-based awards, each appropriately adjusted to generally preserve the intrinsic value of the original award. Adjustments to the awards did not have a material impact to compensation expense. Total stock-based compensation for all stock-based compensation arrangements under the Plan was $23 million and $75 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively and $23 million and $61 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively. The total income tax benefit recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Income for all stock-based compensation arrangements under the Plan was $7 million and $23 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2014, respectively and $7 million and $19 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013, respectively.
