STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Stock-Based Compensation Plans

During the six months ended June 30, 2019, we had two stock benefits plans under which restricted stock, stock options and performance awards have been granted or remain outstanding: the Second Amended and Restated 2006 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Amended and Restated 2006 Plan”) and the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”). The Amended and Restated 2006 Plan was terminated upon the approval of the 2017 Plan at the annual shareholders meeting on May 17, 2017, however, the termination of the Amended and Restated 2006 Plan does not affect the awards previously issued and outstanding under the Amended and Restated 2006 Plan.

All stock-based plans are administered by the Compensation Committee appointed by our Board of Directors (the “Board”). The 2017 Plan provides for grants of options as non-qualified options or incentive stock options, restricted stock and performance awards. The 2017 Plan expires on May 17, 2027.

The status of each of the plans at June 30, 2019 is as follows (shares in thousands):



	Shares Reserved		Shares Available to Issue	Options Outstanding	Performance Awards Outstanding ⁽²⁾
Amended and Restated 2006 Plan	—		—	945	—
2017 Plan	2,705	⁽¹⁾	1,906	152	497
Total	2,705		1,906	1,097	497




(1)	Amount includes approximately 1,150,000 shares granted from the Amended and Restated 2006 Plan that were returned to the Company due to cancellations, to pay taxes on restricted stock vestings and to pay option price and taxes on option exercises.
(2)	Performance Awards are reserved at 200% of shares granted which is equal to the maximum payout in shares.
