Share Based Compensation [Abstract]  
Summary of Terms of Awards Generally Granted to Employees

The following table summarizes the terms of Awards generally granted to employees:

 

 

 

Options

 

Restricted Shares

 

Restricted Units

Overview

 

Options exercised after vesting result in issuance of new Common Shares.

 

Restricted shareholders generally have the same voting rights and receive quarterly dividend payments on their shares at the same rate and on the same date as any other Common Share holder (1).

 

When certain conditions are met, restricted units convert into an equal number of OP Units, which the holder may exchange for Common Shares on a one-for-one basis or at the option of the Company the cash value of such shares. Restricted unitholders receive quarterly distribution payments on their restricted units at the same rate and on the same date as any other OP Unit holder (1).

Grant/Exercise

Price

 

Granted at the fair market value of Common Shares as of the grant date.

 

Granted at the fair market value of Common Shares as of the grant date.

 

Granted at varying discount rates to the fair market value of Common Shares as of the grant date (2).

Vesting Period

 

In three equal installments over a three-year period from the grant date.

 

Three years from the grant date.

 

Three years from the grant date.

Expiration

 

Ten years from the grant date.

 

Not applicable.

 

Ten years from the grant date (2).

Upon Employee

Termination

 

Unvested options are canceled.

 

Unvested restricted shares are canceled.

 

Unvested restricted units are canceled.

(1)

Dividends/distributions paid on unvested restricted shares and units are included as a component of retained earnings and Noncontrolling Interest – Operating Partnership/Limited Partners Capital, respectively, and have not been considered in reducing net income available to Common Shares/Units in a manner similar to the Company’s preferred share/preference unit dividends for the earnings per share/Unit calculation.

(2)

A restricted unit will automatically convert to an OP Unit when the capital account of each restricted unit increases (“books-up”) to a specified target.  The probability of a book-up occurring within the ten-year contractual life along with the liquidity risk associated with various hold period restrictions are both reflected in the discount.  If the capital target is not attained within ten years following the date of issuance, the restricted unit will automatically be canceled and no compensation will be payable to the holder of such canceled restricted unit.  If the capital target is attained and the restricted unit is converted to an OP Unit, it will not expire.

(1)
