The Company has one active stock incentive plan for employees and directors, the 2007 Stock Incentive Plan, which provides for awards of stock options to purchase shares of common stock, stock appreciation rights, restricted and unrestricted shares of common stock, restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance share awards (PSAs). In addition, the Company has one inactive stock option plan, the 1995 Stock Option Plan for Nonemployee Directors, under which previously granted options remain outstanding.

The Company recognizes compensation cost as service is rendered based on the fair value of the awards. The following summarizes share-based compensation expense recorded (in thousands):

A summary of the status of the Company’s RSUs and PSAs as of March 31, 2014 and changes during the three months then ended is presented below:


	Number of RSUs and PSAs			Weighted Average Grant Date Fair Value
Unvested RSUs and PSAs at January 1, 2014		257,087		$	30.69
RSUs and PSAs granted		—			—

RSUs and PSAs canceled		(21,625	)		31.47

Unvested RSUs and PSAs at March 31, 2014		154,993			33.12

RSUs and PSAs are measured at the estimated fair value on the date of grant. RSUs are service-based awards and vest according to vesting schedules, which range from immediate to ratably over a three-year period. PSAs are service-based awards with a market-based vesting condition. Vesting of the market-based PSAs is dependent upon the performance of the market price of the Company’s stock relative to a peer group of companies and ranges from two to three years. The unvested balance of RSUs and PSAs at March 31, 2014 includes approximately 129,000 PSAs at a target level of performance; the actual number of common shares that will ultimately be issued will be determined by multiplying this number of PSAs by a payout percentage ranging from 0% to 200%.
