The vesting period for the non-qualified stock options is four years with the first 50% of such stock options vesting at the end of the second-year anniversary of the grant date and the remainder vesting 25% annually on each of the following two anniversaries thereafter. Vesting for the performance-based restricted stock units has a three-year cliff and is tied to achievement of a performance metric of compounded annual growth rate in earnings-per-share (EPS) in 2014 compared to a baseline EPS determined by the Compensation Committee for 2011. In addition, in the event that the Company achieves certain elevated performance metrics prior to the end of the three-year vesting period (defined by the Compensation Committee with pre-determined elevated EPS targets in either 2012 or 2013), the performance-base restricted stock units will be deemed to have met the performance requirements and will convert to time-based vesting for the remainder of the three-year term.
