The options outstanding had an intrinsic value of $172 at July 30, 2011.

We recognized pre-tax compensation expense for stock options granted under the 2010 stock plan of $109 for the three months ended July 30, 2011 and zero for the three months ended July 31, 2010. We record the compensation expense related to the stock options in the selling and administrative section of our condensed consolidated statement of operations.

Restricted Stock Awards and Restricted Stock Units Granted Under the 2010 Stock Plan

Our Compensation Committee awarded 640,000 shares of common stock subject to performance-based restricted stock awards to certain members of management during the third quarter of fiscal 2011. The performance measure will be the Company's internal enterprise value at the end of fiscal 2015. The internal enterprise value shall equal the product of (i) fiscal 2015 EBITDA and (ii) 7.5 (the historic multiple of EBITDA), subject to an adjustment for cash, short-term investments, debt, preferred stock, certain equity issuances, certain acquisitions and the changes in the dividend rate. The restricted stock awards will vest, i.e., the restrictions will lapse, at the end of the five-year performance period to the extent the performance goals have been achieved. The remaining shares will be forfeited.

Our Compensation Committee awarded 320,000 shares of common stock subject to time-based restricted stock units to certain members of management during the third quarter of fiscal 2011. The restricted stock units will vest 20% each year on the last day of our fiscal year and be 100% vested on the last day of fiscal 2015 provided the executive remains employed.

In April 2007, 225,000 shares of common stock subject to performance-based Restricted Stock Awards (RSAs) granted to our CEO in fiscal 2006 and 2007 were converted to Restricted Stock Units (RSUs). The RSUs were subject to the same vesting schedule and other major provisions of the RSAs they replaced, except the shares for stock underlying the RSUs will not be issued and delivered until the earlier of: (1) thirty days after the CEO’s date of termination of employment with the Company and all of its subsidiaries and affiliates; or (2) the last day of our fiscal year in which the payment of common stock in satisfaction of the RSUs becomes deductible to the Company under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The RSUs are not entitled to voting rights or the payment of dividends. The RSU’s are fully vested as of July 30, 2011. As of July 30, 2011, no shares have been delivered pursuant to the RSUs.

At the beginning of fiscal 2012, there were no RSAs outstanding related to the 2007 stock plan. During the three months ended July 30, 2011, we awarded 28,860 restricted shares to our independent directors, all of which vested immediately upon grant.
