Share-based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]  
Equity Incentive Disclosure EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN
The Company’s equity incentive plan provides employees and directors of the Company additional incentives to join and/or remain in the service of the Company as well as to maintain and enhance the long-term performance and profitability of the Company. The Company’s 2013 equity incentive plan was approved by shareholders on May 2, 2013 and provides that 2 million shares of common stock, plus any shares that remained available for grant under the Company's prior equity incentive plan as well as options outstanding that terminate without being exercised, may be the subject of awards. The plan provides for the grant of options, restricted stock units, and other equity-based awards. The exercise price of options granted shall not be less than the fair market value of the common stock on the date of the award. Options primarily vest equally over a five-year period from the date of grant and have a maximum term of up to ten years and six months. Restricted units primarily vest equally over a five-year period from the date of grant. Performance share units generally vest after a three-year period from the date of the grant based upon satisfaction of the performance condition. The compensation committee of the Board of Directors has generally granted restricted share units to participating managers and non-qualified stock options and performance share units to executive officers.
All share-based compensation arrangements granted to employees, including stock option grants, are recognized in the consolidated statement of operations based on the grant-date fair value of the award over the period during which an employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. Share-based compensation expense is recorded within selling, general, and administrative in the consolidated statement of operations with a corresponding offset to additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheet.
The fair values of stock options granted were calculated using the Black-Scholes pricing model. The aggregate intrinsic value of an option is the amount by which the fair value of the underlying stock exceeds its exercise price.

The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 was approximately $146.6 million, $74.3 million, and $105.6 million, respectively.
The compensation expense for options recognized during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 was $8.0 million, $8.4 million, and $8.9 million, respectively.
During the fourth quarter of 2016, the Company granted 12,678 performance-based options, with a grant-date fair value of $1.5 million. Compensation expense is recognized over the five-year vesting provisions based upon the probability of the performance condition being met.

The weighted average grant-date fair value of the restricted stock units granted during years ended 2019, 2018, and 2017 was $720.81, $595.31. and $671.60 per unit, respectively, which primarily vest ratably over a five-year period. The total fair value of the restricted stock units on the date of grant was $8.9 million for 2019, $9.6 million for 2018 and $8.7 million for 2017 and will be recorded as compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The total fair value of restricted stock units vested during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017 was approximately $7.0 million, $7.2 million, and $6.8 million, respectively. Approximately $7.1 million, $6.8 million and $6.5 million of compensation expense was recognized during the years ended December 31, 2019, 2018 and 2017 respectively.
The Company granted performance share units with a market condition during 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively. Grantees of performance share units will be eligible to receive shares of the Company's common stock depending upon the Company's total shareholder return relative to the performance of companies in the S&P 500 Healthcare and S&P 500 Industrials over a three-year period. The awards actually earned will range from zero to 200% of the targeted number of performance share units for the three-year performance period and will be paid, to the extent earned, in the fiscal quarter following the end of the applicable three-year performance period. During 2019 the market conditions for the 2016 performance share units were met and will vest in the first quarter 2020 with a payout of 146%. Performance share unit awards were valued using a Monte Carlo simulation based on the following assumptions:
