At June 30, 2014, the Company had unrecognized compensation expense of approximately $630 and $1,996, respectively, related to the vesting of restricted stock awards and RSUs noted in the table above. RSU Deliveries During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company delivered 240,277 shares of common stock for 283,750 vested RSUs. The Company allows RSU participants to settle their tax liabilities with a reduction of their share delivery from the originally granted and vested RSUs. The amount, when agreed to by the participant, results in a cash payment to the Manager related to this tax liability and a corresponding adjustment to additional paid in capital on the consolidated statement of changes in stockholders' equity. The adjustment was $876 for six months ended June 30, 2014, and is included as a component of the capital decrease related to the Company's equity incentive plan in the consolidated statement of changes in stockholders’ equity.
