Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Abstract]  
Stock-Based Compensation STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION
Our 2014 Long Term Stock Incentive Plan provides for the issuance of stock-based incentives in various forms to our employees and non-employee Directors. At September 30, 2022, outstanding stock-based incentives were in the form of restricted stock units, performance restricted stock units, stock options, long-term stock awards and phantom stock awards.

Pre-tax compensation expense for these stock-based incentives was as follows, in millions:

Restricted Stock Units. Restricted stock units are granted to our key employees and non-employee Directors. These grants did not cause net share dilution due to our practice of repurchasing and retiring an equal number of shares in the open market.
We granted approximately 608,000 restricted stock units in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 with a weighted average grant date fair value of approximately $59 per share.

At September 30, 2022 and 2021, there was $21 million and $18 million, respectively, of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock units; such units had a weighted average remaining vesting period of two years at both September 30, 2022 and 2021.

The total market value (at the vesting date) of restricted stock units which vested was $20 million and $8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Performance Restricted Stock Units. Under our Long Term Incentive Program, we grant performance restricted stock units to certain senior executives. These performance restricted stock units will vest and share awards will be issued at no cost to the employees, subject to our achievement of specified performance metrics established by our Compensation Committee over a three-year performance period and the recipient's continued employment through the share award date.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we granted approximately 92,000 performance restricted stock units with a grant date fair value of approximately $55 per share and approximately 168,000 shares were issued. No performance restricted stock units were forfeited during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we granted approximately 85,000 performance restricted stock units with a grant date fair value of approximately $53 per share and approximately 105,000 shares were issued. No performance restricted stock units were forfeited during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Stock Options. Stock options are granted to certain key employees.
We granted approximately 338,000 shares of stock options in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 with a grant date weighted average exercise price of approximately $59 per share.
