Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract] |
Share-Based Compensation | Share-Based Compensation Viad grants share-based compensation awards to officers, directors and certain key employees pursuant to the 2007 Viad Corp Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2007 Plan”). The 2007 Plan has a 10-year life and provides for the following types of awards: (a) incentive and non-qualified stock options; (b) restricted stock and restricted stock units; (c) performance units or performance shares; (d) stock appreciation rights; (e) cash-based awards and (f) certain other stock-based awards. The number of shares of common stock available for grant under the 2007 Plan is limited to 1.7 million shares plus shares awarded under the 1997 Viad Corp Omnibus Incentive Plan (which terminated in May 2007) (the “1997 Plan”) that subsequently cease for any reason to be subject to such awards (other than by reason of exercise or settlement of the awards to the extent the shares are exercised for, or settled in, vested and non-forfeited shares) up to an aggregate maximum of 1.5 million shares. As of December 31, 2013, there were 983,971 total shares available for future grant. The following table summarizes share-based compensation expense:
(in thousands) | 2013 |  | 2012 |  | 2011
Restricted stock/PBRS | $ | 3,073 |  |  | $ | 3,267 |  |  | $ | 3,042 |
Performance unit incentive plan (“PUP”) | 1,864 |  |  | 2,922 |  |  | 714 |
Restricted stock units/PBRS units | 177 |  |  | 450 |  |  | 120 |
Stock options | 107 |  |  | 593 |  |  | 537 |
Total share-based compensation before income tax benefit | 5,221 |  |  | 7,232 |  |  | 4,413 |
Income tax benefit | (1,936 | ) |  | (2,574 | ) |  | (1,594 | )
Total share-based compensation, net of income tax benefit | $ | 3,285 |  |  | $ | 4,658 |  |  | $ | 2,819 |
In addition, $676,000, $253,000 and $124,000 of costs associated with share-based compensation were included in restructuring expense in 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Of the 2013 amount, $154,000 and $329,000 related to the restricted stock units and PUP awards presented below, respectively. Similarly, of the 2012 amount, $94,000 related to PUP awards. No share-based compensation costs were capitalized during 2013, 2012 or 2011. On October 25, 2013, Viad announced that its Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend of $2.50 per share, or $50.8 million in the aggregate, which was paid on November 14, 2013. In accordance with the mandatory provisions of the 2007 Plan and the 1997 Plan, the Human Resources Committee of Viad’s Board of Directors approved equitable adjustments to outstanding long-term incentive awards of stock options and PUP awards issued pursuant to those plans in order to prevent the special dividends from diluting the rights of participants under those plans. The equitable adjustments to the outstanding stock options reduced the exercise price and increased the number of shares of common stock underlying such options. The equitable adjustment to the PUP awards reflects the effect of the special dividends, but would be paid only if certain performance goals are met at the end of the 3-year performance period. Restricted Stock and PBRS. The following table summarizes restricted stock and PBRS activity:

(1) This includes the reversal of previously canceled stock options. As of December 31, 2013, there were no unrecognized costs related to non-vested stock option awards. No stock options were granted in 2013, 2012 or 2011. As previously discussed above, the equitable adjustments to the outstanding stock options resulting from the special cash dividend paid on November 14, 2013 reduced the exercise price and increased the number of shares of common stock underlying such options. The following table summarizes information concerning stock options outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2013:
| Options Outstanding |  | Options Exercisable
|  |  | Weighted-Average Remaining Contractual Life (in years) |  | Weighted- Average Exercise Price |  |  |  | Weighted- Average Exercise Price

Additional information pertaining to stock options is provided in the table below:
(in thousands) | 2013 |  | 2012 |  | 2011
Total intrinsic value of stock options outstanding | $ | 2,723 |  |  | $ | 2,329 |  |  | $ | — |
Total intrinsic value of stock options exercised | $ | 1,611 |  |  | $ | 296 |  |  | $ | 325 |
Fair value of stock options vested | $ | 532 |  |  | $ | 539 |  |  | $ | 682 |
Cash received from the exercise of stock options | $ | 777 |  |  | $ | 248 |  |  | $ | 296 |
Tax benefits (deficiencies) realized for tax deductions related to stock option exercises and performance-based awards | $ | 404 |  |  | $ | 96 |  |  | $ | (325 | )
The aggregate intrinsic value of stock options outstanding in the table above represents the difference between Viad’s closing stock price on December 31 of each year and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options. The intrinsic value of stock options outstanding therefore changes based on changes in the fair market value of Viad’s common stock.
