As of June 30, 2012, 740,292 stock options were exercisable under the Plans. In addition, the fair value of options which vested during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $0.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2012, the Company did not recognize any stock-based compensation expense related to stock options. The Company recognized approximately $0.1 million of stock-based compensation expense related to options during the three months ended June 30, 2011, and approximately $40 thousand and $0.2 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The stock-based compensation expense is included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statement of operations. Restricted Shares During the three months ended June 30, 2012 and March 31, 2012, the Company issued 2,213 and 2,120 shares, respectively, for director fee deferrals. The Company allows for its non-employee independent directors to make an annual election to defer all or a portion of their directors fees and to receive the deferred amount in cash or equity. Certain of our directors have elected to defer all or a portion of their directors fees and to receive the amount in Company common stock at a future date. The Company also awarded multiple restricted stock grants during the first quarter of 2012. First, the Company granted 19,532 restricted shares of common stock to certain employees which are subject only to a service condition and vest ratably over three years so long as the employee remains with the Company. Secondly, the Company awarded 60,665 restr icted shares of co mmon stock to certain employees during the first quarter of 2012. These shares are subject only to a service condition and vest on the first anniversary date of the award. The awards were made to participants in the Company's short-term Incentive Compensation Plan ("ICP"), where, beginning in the 2010 plan year, all ICP participants whose target ICP annual award exceeds $20 thousand receive 80% of the value in earned cash and 20% in the form of a restricted stock award upon finalization of the award amount in the first quarter e ach year, following the previous plan year. The Company awarded 206,064 r estricted shares to certain Company key employees during the first quarter of 2012. Half of the restricted shares granted are service-based restricted stock units. These awards vest ratably over three years. The other half of the shares are subject to a performance condition and are earned based upon the achievement of two performance metrics over a period of three calendar years, beginning on January 1, 2012 and ending on December 31, 2014. Of this award, 75% of the awards are earned based upon the Company's earnings per share ("EPS") cumulative average growth rate ("EPS CAGR") over the performance period. The remaining 25% of the grants are earned based upon the Company's cash generation results. Cash generation is defined as the Company's cumulative three year cash flow from operating activities less capital expenditures, as publicly reported by the Company, plus or minus special items that may occur from time-to-time, divided by the Company's three-year income from continuing operations as publicly reported by the Company, plus or minus special items that may occur from time-to-time. Depending on the performance achieved for these two metrics, the amount of shares earned can vary from 30% of the target award to a maximum amount of 200% of the target award for the cash flow metric and 250% of the target award for the EPS CAGR metric. However, if these performance metrics are not achieved, no award will be earned. The performance awards vest on a "cliff" basis at the end of the three-year performance period. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company also awarded 166,530 restricted shares to certain Company key employees which are solely performance-based grants. Of this award, 60% are earned based on 2012 earnings per share growth, and the remaining 40% are earned based on the EPS CAGR for 2012 and 2013. Depending on the performance achieved for these two specific metrics, the amount of shares earned can vary from 30% of the target award to a maximum amount of 250% of the target award. However, if these performance metrics are not achieved, no award will be earned. In addition, the Company granted 16,440 restricted shares of its common stock to its non-employee independent directors, which vest one year from date of grant so long as the director and/or Company does not terminate his services prior to the vesting date. Information related to restricted shares at June 30, 2012 is as follows:
