Stock-Based Associate Compensation Plans

NOTE 9 – Stock-Based Associate Compensation Plans

We currently have four equity compensation plans that permit us to grant various types of equity awards. We currently grant incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, service-based restricted stock units and performance-based restricted stock units, including some with market-based performance objectives, under our shareholder-approved plans. We also have a Holiday Stock Plan that permits annual awards of one share of common stock to each full-time associate for each full calendar year of service up to a maximum of 10 shares. One of our equity compensation plans permits us to grant stock to our outside directors as a component of their annual compensation. For additional information about our equity compensation plans, see our 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Item 8, Note 17, Stock-Based Associate Compensation Plans, Page 125.

A total of 16.9million shares are authorized to be granted under the shareholder-approved plans. At June 30, 2011, 4.3million shares were available for future issuance under the plans.

Stock-Based Awards

During the first quarter of 2011, we granted 24,492 shares of common stock to our directors for 2010 board service fees. Stock-based awards were granted to associates during the first quarter of 2011 and are summarized in the tables below. Stock-based compensation cost after tax was $3 million and $2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and $5 million and $4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.

As of June 30, 2011, $21 million of unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested awards is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years.
