Stock-Based Compensation Plans

NOTE 13. Stock-Based Compensation Plans

In 1996, we adopted a Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “1996 Incentive Plan”). The number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 1996 Incentive Plan was 1,800,000. In 1997, we adopted a second Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “1997 Incentive Plan”). The number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 1997 Incentive Plan was 600,000. In 1999 we adopted a third Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “1999 Incentive Plan”). The number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 1999 Incentive Plan was 2,400,000. In 2002, we adopted a fourth Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2002 Incentive Plan”). The number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 2002 Incentive Plan was 2,400,000. In 2003, we amended our 2002 Incentive Plan to add an additional 2,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock that are reserved for issuance. In 2007, we amended our 2002 Incentive Plan to add an additional 1,000,000 shares of Class A Common Stock that are reserved for issuance. Under the 2002 Incentive Plan, stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance units may be granted for the purpose of attracting and motivating our key employees and non-employee directors. We have not granted any stock options since 2003 and have no stock options outstanding. Restricted stock vests over a three to five year period. As of December 31, 2014, 726,640 shares were available for future grant. When stock options are exercised, either new shares are issued or shares are issued out of treasury.

Share-based compensation expense for 2014, 2013 and 2012 was $8.3 million, $7.7 million and $6.5 million or $5.2 million, $4.6 million and $4.0 million, net of taxes, respectively.

Intrinsic value for stock options is defined as the difference between the current market value and the grant price. There were no options exercised during the year ended December 31, 2014.  The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $0.6 million and $1.2 million, respectively. Cash received from stock options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $0.04 million and $0.07 million, respectively. The tax benefit realized for tax deductions from stock options exercised for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 was $0.2 million and $0.5 million, respectively.

The fair value of non-vested restricted stock is equal to the market price of our stock at the date of grant.
