9. Stock Plans

On May 6, 2008 and May 12, 2004, respectively, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”) and the 2004 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2004 Plan”). On May 6, 2014, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2014 Plan” and together with the 2004 Plan and the 2008 Plan, the “Stock Plans”), which replaced the 2008 Plan and 2004 Plan for all equity-based awards granted on or after May 6, 2014. The 2014 Plan is designed to promote the long-term financial interests and growth of the Company by attracting, motivating and retaining employees with the ability to contribute to the success of the business and to align compensation for the Company’s employees over a multi-year period directly with the interests of the shareholders of the Company. The Company’s Board of Directors or a committee thereof administers the 2014 Plan.

Pursuant to the option components of the Stock Plans, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company to enter into agreements under which certain employees received stock options with (i) time vesting criteria and/or (ii) both time and performance vesting criteria (“T&P Options”). On May 7, 2015, the Company’s shareholders approved an amendment to the 2014 Plan to permit a one-time stock option exchange program under which the Company would offer eligible employees the opportunity to exchange certain eligible T&P Options on a (a) two-for-one basis for new stock options for all eligible employees, other than the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (i.e., so that the new stock options would cover half as many shares as the corresponding surrendered options) and (b) 3.5-for-one basis for new stock options for the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (i.e., so that the new stock options would cover a number of shares equal to the quotient of the number of shares covered by the corresponding surrendered options divided by 3.5). The option exchange program was designed to create better incentives for employees to remain with the Company and contribute to the attainment of its business and financial objectives.

On May 22, 2015, the Company launched a tender offer in connection with the option exchange program which expired on June 22, 2015. Pursuant to the offer, employees tendered options to purchase 1,700 shares of common stock (representing 99.6% of the total shares of common stock underlying the options eligible for exchange) with a weighted-average exercise price of $24.68 per share. The Company cancelled and replaced those options on June 22, 2015 with options to purchase 734 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $5.25 per share, which was the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on June 22, 2015. The replacement options vest over three years, with 25% vesting on each of the first and second anniversaries of the date of grant and 50% vesting on the third anniversary of the date of grant. The option exchange resulted in an incremental stock option expense of $1,599, which was determined by comparing the fair value of the T&P Option as calculated based on a Monte Carlo simulation, to the fair value of the replacement options, as calculated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model, for the eligible options at the time of exchange. This incremental expense, along with the unamortized expense associated with the cancelled options, is being recognized ratably over the new vesting period of the replacement options, which is three years. As of the end of fiscal 2015, there were no outstanding T&P Options.

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company granted 1 share of stock options with a vesting period of three years, with a total fair value of $6, or a weighted average fair value of $6.41 per share.

During the second quarter of 2016, the Company granted 4 shares of stock options with a vesting period of three years, with a total fair value of $25, or a weighted average fair value of $6.58 per share. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company also granted 434 shares of restricted stock with a vesting period of three years, with a total fair value of $5,730, or a weighted average fair value of $13.20 per share. During the second quarter of 2016, the Company also granted 289 shares of restricted stock, subject to certain performance conditions, with a vesting period of three years and a fair value of $3,819, or a weighted average fair value of $13.20 per share. These grants are subject to the minimum achievement of a year-end 2018 Net Debt/EBITDAS ratio of less than 4.5x. Depending upon the level of achievement above this minimum level, the amount of shares that can vest ranges from 96, or 33.33% of outstanding shares, to 482, or 166.67% of outstanding shares. The Company is currently accruing compensation expense to what we believe is the probable outcome upon vesting.
