During the first three months of 2012, the Company granted 0.5 million employee stock options, which had a weighted average grant date fair value of $15.15 per share based on the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company also granted 1.3 million shares of restricted stock in the first three months of 2012, which had a weighted average grant date fair value of $38.62 per share and generally vest ratably over a four-year period. Additionally, the Company granted approximately 0.3 million shares of restricted stock that contain a condition whereby the number of shares that ultimately vest are based on the achievement of certain non-market based performance metrics of the Company over a three-year period. The weighted average grant date fair value of these awards was $36.71 per share.

The following weighted average assumptions were used in determining the fair value for options granted in 2012:

 

Expected dividend yield

     1.66

Expected stock volatility

     44

Risk-free interest rate

     1.55

Expected holding period

     7.4 yrs   

Grant date fair value

   $ 15.15   

Unrecognized compensation expense at March 31, 2012 was $23.0 million and $84.9 million for stock options and nonvested restricted stock, respectively, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years and 1.9 years, respectively. Additionally, there was $20.8 million of unrecognized compensation expense relating to the aforementioned non-market based performance awards which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.1 years.
