Disclosure of Compensation Related Costs, Share-based Payments [Abstract]

The Company’s share-based compensation payments to employees are recognized based on their grant-date fair values during the period in which the employee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. Share-based compensation is recognized as a component of selling and administrative expense. Total share-based compensation expense was $5,299 and $3,284 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, and $10,379 and $10,470 for the six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Share-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2013 included accelerated expense of $2,982 related to executive severance.

Options outstanding and exercisable as of June 30, 2014 under the Company’s 1991 Equity and Performance Incentive Plan (as Amended and Restated as of April 13, 2009) (the 1991 Plan) and changes during the six months ended June 30, 2014, were as follows:



	Number of Shares		Weighted- Average Exercise Price		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term	Aggregate Intrinsic Value (1)
	(in thousands)		(per share)		(in years)
Outstanding at January 1, 2014	1,954		$	39.63
Expired or forfeited	(329	)	51.83
Exercised	(431	)	33.05
Granted	446		34.13
Outstanding at June 30, 2014	1,640		37.19		6	$	8,703
Options exercisable at June 30, 2014	909		40.18		4	3,798
Options vested and expected to vest at June 30, 2014 (2)	1,613		37.26		6	8,505

(1)

The aggregate intrinsic value (the difference between the closing price of the Company’s common shares on the last trading day of the second quarter of 2014 and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of “in-the-money” options) that would have been received by the option holders had all option holders exercised their options on June 30, 2014. The amount of aggregate intrinsic value will change based on the fair market value of the Company’s common shares.


(2)	The options expected to vest are the result of applying the pre-vesting forfeiture rate assumption to total outstanding non-vested options.

The following table summarizes information on non-vested RSUs and performance shares for the six months ended June 30, 2014:



	Number of Shares		Weighted-Average Grant-Date Fair Value
	(in thousands)

(1)	The RSUs granted during the six months ended June 30, 2014 include 35 thousand one-year RSUs to non-employee directors under the 1991 Plan. These RSUs have a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $39.35.


(2)	Non-vested performance shares are based on a maximum potential payout.
