Share-Based Compensation

11. Share-Based Compensation

We grant share-based awards, including restricted stock and options to purchase our common stock. Stock options are granted to employees and directors for a fixed number of shares with an exercise price equal to the fair value of the shares at the date of grant. Share-based compensation is recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. The amortization of share-based compensation reflects estimated forfeitures adjusted for actual forfeiture experience. Forfeiture rates are reviewed on an annual basis. As share-based compensation expense is recognized, a deferred tax asset is recorded that represents an estimate of the future tax deduction from the exercise of stock options or release of restrictions on the restricted stock. At the time share-based awards are exercised, cancelled, expire or restrictions lapse, we recognize adjustments to income tax expense. Total compensation expense related to share-based awards was $1.1 million and $0.9 million for the three months ended December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011 and $2.7 million and $2.1 million for the six months ended December 29, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively. The number of options exercised and restricted stock vested since June 30, 2012, was 0.3 million shares.

On August 23, 2012, our Chief Executive Officer was granted a performance based restricted stock award (the “Performance Award”). The Performance Award has both a financial performance component and a service component. The Performance Award has a target level of 100,000 restricted shares, a maximum award of 150,000 restricted shares and a minimum award of 50,000 restricted shares, subject to attainment of financial performance goals and service conditions. Since the company has not yet achieved the threshold performance amount, none of these shares are considered outstanding in the diluted earnings per share calculation as of December 29, 2012.
