Disclosure of Share-based Compensation Arrangements by Share-based Payment Award [Table Text Block] | Share Awards Unvested share awards A summary of activity related to unvested share awards follows for the periods indicated:
Unvested share awards are generally valued at the closing price of the Company's common stock on the date of grant. All shares granted prior to 2019 vest in equal annual installments over a period of three years from the date of grant. All shares granted in 2019 and 2020 to Company employees vest in equal annual installments over a period of four years from the date of grant. Shares granted to the Company's Board of Directors vest over a period of one year. The following table summarizes the closing price of the Company's stock on the date of grant for shares granted and the aggregate grant date fair value of shares vesting for the periods indicated (in thousands, except per share data):
The total unrecognized compensation cost of $29.5 million for all unvested share awards outstanding at June 30, 2020 will be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 2.75 years. Executive share-based awards Certain of the Company's executives are eligible to receive annual awards of RSUs and PSUs (collectively, the "share units"). Annual awards of RSUs represent a fixed number of shares and vest on December 31st in equal tranches over three years for grants prior to 2019, and over four years for awards issued in 2019 and 2020. PSUs are initially granted based on a target value. The number of PSUs that ultimately vest at the end of the performance measurement period will be based on the achievement of performance criteria pre-established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Upon vesting, the share units will be converted to common stock on a one-for-one basis, or may be settled in cash at the Company's option. The share units will accumulate dividends declared on the Company's common stock from the date of grant to be paid subsequent to vesting. As a result of the majority of previous settlements being in cash, all RSUs and PSUs have been determined to be liability instruments and are remeasured at fair value each reporting period until the awards are settled. The RSUs are valued based on the closing price of the Company's common stock at the reporting date. The PSUs are valued based on the closing price of the Company's common stock at the reporting date net of a discount related to any applicable market conditions, considering the probability of meeting the defined performance conditions. Compensation cost related to PSUs is recognized during the performance period based on the probable outcome of the respective performance conditions. A summary of activity related to executive share-based awards for the period indicated follows:
The total liability for the share units was $2.9 million at June 30, 2020. The total unrecognized compensation cost of $6.2 million for these share units at June 30, 2020 will be recognized over a weighted average remaining period of 2.45 years. Incentive awards The Company's annual incentive compensation arrangements for employees other than those eligible for the executive share-based awards discussed above provide for settlement through a combination of cash payments and unvested share awards following the end of the annual performance period. The dollar value of share awards to be granted is based on the achievement of performance criteria established in the incentive arrangements. The number of shares of common stock to be awarded is variable based on the closing price of the Company's stock on the date of grant; therefore, these awards are initially classified as liability instruments, with compensation cost recognized from the beginning of the performance period. Awards related to performance periods prior to 2019 vest over three years and awards related to the 2019 and 2020 performance periods vest in equal installments over a period of four years from the date of grant. These awards are included in the summary of activity related to unvested share awards above. The total liability and unrecognized compensation cost for incentive share awards for the 2020 performance period was not material. The accrued liability and unrecognized compensation cost are based on management's current estimate of the likely outcome of the performance criteria established in the incentive arrangements and may differ from actual results. The 644,300 unvested share awards granted during the six months ended June 30, 2020, as discussed above, included 114,936 unvested share awards granted under the Company's annual incentive compensation arrangements based on the achievement of established performance criteria for the year ended December 31, 2019.
