Stock-Based Compensation Plans
The Seventh Restated 2002 Stock Incentive Plan authorized the issuance of 23,500,000 shares (13,429,000 RSUs) of common stock for future grants in addition to the shares authorized under the previous plan. The Company issues new shares of common stock upon vesting of RSUs. Shares for vested RSUs are generally delivered to participants annually, net of shares withheld for statutory taxes.

At May 13, 2018, 8,262,000 shares were available to be granted as RSUs and the following awards were outstanding:
•
7,305,000 time-based RSUs that vest upon continued employment over specified periods of time;
•
127,000 performance-based RSUs, granted to executive officers of the Company, for which the performance targets have been met. The awards vest upon continued employment over specified periods of time; and
•
