In addition to stock options, the Company issues time-based and performance-based RSUs to certain officers and key executives under various equity incentive plans. The RSUs automatically convert to shares of common stock on a one-for-one basis as the awards vest. The time-based RSUs typically vest over a three year vesting period beginning 12 months from the grant date and thereafter annually on the anniversary of the grant date. The performance-based RSUs vest based on the achievement of the performance conditions during the applicable performance periods (currently the calendar year). There were 493 thousand shares of common stock issued upon vesting of RSUs during 2019, net of 304 thousand shares surrendered to satisfy tax obligations. The Company measures the value of RSUs at fair value based on the closing price of the underlying common stock on the grant date. The Company amortizes the fair value of outstanding RSUs as stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period on a straight-line basis, or sooner if the employee effectively vests upon termination of employment under certain circumstances. For performance-based RSUs, compensation expense is recognized to the extent that the satisfaction of the performance condition is considered probable.

A summary of RSUs granted follows (RSUs in thousands):

	Year Ended December 31,
	2019		2018		2017
RSUs granted	456		566		809
Weighted-average grant date price per unit	$	124.37	$	175.79	$	130.96

As of December 31, 2019, the total pretax compensation cost not yet recognized by the Company with regard to unvested RSUs was $38. The weighted-average period over which this compensation cost is expected to be recognized is 1.8 years.
