16. SUBSEQUENT EVENT


Equity Awards


In October 2014, the Board of Directors approved 337,000 shares of PSUs to non-executive employees with five consecutive two-year performance periods that will begin from 2015 and end in 2020.   In addition, the Board of Directors approved 218,000 shares of PSUs to executive officers with a two-year performance period that will begin in 2015.  The performance metrics for all of the PSUs will be determined by the Board of Directors prior to the inception of each performance period.  


The Company reserved these shares from the 2004 Plan.  In addition, the Company will determine the grant date fair value of these awards and begin recognizing the related expense when the performance criteria are approved by the Board of Directors and communicated to employees prior to the inception of each performance period.
