8. Shareholders' Equity

Dividends
 We declared cash dividends of $0.15 per share of common stock for each of 2013, 2012 and 2011. Our Credit Facility and Term Loans restrict the payment of cash dividends to a maximum of the sum of (i) $50.0 million plus (ii) 50% of the cumulative consolidated net income for each fiscal quarter beginning with the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2010, plus (iii) 100% of the net proceeds of all equity issuances made after October 2013. The payment of the above-referenced dividends was in compliance with the Credit Facility and Term Loans.

Stock Repurchase Programs
 Our Board of Directors, from time to time, has authorized stock repurchase programs under the terms of which we may repurchase our common stock, subject to certain restrictions contained in our Credit Facility and Term Loans. In October 2008, our Board of Directors authorized a $50.0 million common stock repurchase program (the "Repurchase Program"). The Repurchase Program does not require a minimum number of shares of common stock to be purchased and has no expiration date but may be suspended or discontinued at any time. In 2013, we repurchased 926,000 shares of our common stock for an aggregate value of $35.0 million pursuant to the Repurchase Program. We did not repurchase any shares of common stock under any stock repurchase program in 2012 or 2011. As of December 31, 2013, $15.0 million remains available for purchase under the Repurchase Program.

Share-Based Payment Plans

Plan Summary and Description
 In 2006, our shareholders approved the 2006 Omnibus Plan (the "2006 Plan"). The 2006 Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the "Compensation Committee"). The purpose of the 2006 Plan is to (i) attract and retain persons eligible to participate in the 2006 Plan; (ii) motivate participants, by means of appropriate incentives, to achieve long-range goals; (iii) provide incentive compensation opportunities that are competitive with those of other similar companies; and (iv) further align participants' interests with those of our other shareholders through compensation that is based on the value of our common stock. The goal is to promote the long-term financial interest of World Fuel and its subsidiaries, including the growth in value of our equity and enhancement of long-term shareholder return. The persons eligible to receive awards under the 2006 Plan are our employees, officers, and members of the Board of Directors, or any consultant or other person who performs services for us.

The provisions of the 2006 Plan authorize the grant of stock options which can be "qualified" or "nonqualified" under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, restricted stock, RSUs, SSAR Awards, performance shares and performance units and other share- based awards. The 2006 Plan is unlimited in duration and, in the event of its termination, the 2006 Plan will remain in effect as long as any of the above awards are outstanding. No awards may be granted under the 2006 Plan after June 2016. The term and vesting period of awards granted under the 2006 Plan are established on a per grant basis, but options and SSAR Awards may not remain exercisable after the seven-year anniversary of the date of grant.

Under the 2006 Plan, 4,900,000 shares of common stock are authorized for issuance. Additional shares of common stock that are authorized for issuance under the 2006 Plan include any shares that were available for future grant under any of our prior stock plans, and any stock or stock options granted under the 2006 Plan or any prior plans that expire or are forfeited or canceled.

Furthermore, any employee's shares used to satisfy the withholding taxes due upon vesting of restricted stock or RSUs or exercise of SSAR Awards are added to the maximum number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2006 Plan.

The following table summarizes the outstanding awards issued pursuant to the 2006 Plan described above as of December 31, 2013 and the remaining shares of common stock available for future issuance (in thousands):

The aggregate intrinsic value of SSAR Awards exercised during 2013, 2012 and 2011 was $9.1 million, $2.1 million and $10.2 million, respectively, based on the difference between the average of the high and low market price of our common stock at the exercise date and the SSAR Award exercise price.

As discussed in Note 1, we currently use the Black Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of SSAR Awards granted to employees and non-employee directors. The weighted average fair value of the SSAR Awards for 2013 was $11.65 and the assumptions used to determine such fair value were as follows: expected term of 4.1 years, volatility of 38.0%, dividend yields of 0.4% and risk-free interest rates of 0.6%. There were no SSAR Awards issued in 2012 and 2011.

Unrecognized Compensation Cost
 As of December 31, 2013, there was $32.7 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based payment awards, which is included as capital in excess of par value in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The unrecognized compensation cost as of December 31, 2013 is expected to be recognized as compensation expense over a weighted average period of 1.4 years as follows (in thousands):

The foreign currency translation adjustment losses for 2013, 2012 and 2011 were primarily due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar as compared to the Brazilian Real.
