Stock Based Compensation

The Company grants stock-based compensation to employees, directors, and other key service providers under the Hexion Holdings Corporation 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2019 Incentive Plan”). Under the 2019 Incentive Plan, the Company may grant stock options, restricted stock units, performance stock units and other equity-based awards to be awarded from time to time as the Board of Directors of Hexion Holdings (the “Board”) determines. The restricted and performance stock units are deemed to be equivalent to one share of common stock of Hexion Holdings. The awards contain restrictions on transferability and other typical terms and conditions.

In the first quarter of 2020, Hexion Holdings granted 821,758 Restricted Stock Units (“RSUs”) to certain employees and non-employee directors that time vest over three years with a weighted average grant date fair value of $15.80 per share. Additionally, Hexion Holdings granted 823,619 Performance Stock Units (“PSUs”) to certain employees that vest based on performance conditions with a weighted average grant date fair value of $15.80. Compensation cost will be recognized over the service period of the PSUs once the satisfaction of the applicable performance condition is deemed probable. As of June 30, 2020, the Company performance conditions underlying the PSU's were not considered probable of occurring and thus no PSU expense has been recorded.

As of June 30, 2020, all RSUs and PSUs were unvested and there were an insignificant number of units forfeited.

The Company recognized $4 and $9 of stock-based compensation costs for the Successor three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. There were no stock-based compensation costs for the Predecessor three and six months ended June 30, 2019.
