Restricted Stock
Restricted stock awards generally vest over three years and in some cases based on corporate earnings-
related performance targets. Outstanding restricted stock is entitled to dividend equivalent units that vest subject
to the same vesting requirements or lapse of transfer restrictions, as applicable, as the underlying restricted stock
award. The fair value of restricted stock awards is based on our stock price at the grant date.
