Equity-Based Compensation
Equity-Based Compensation
The Company adopted a long-term incentive plan, as amended (the “Plan”), which it may use to attract and retain qualified officers, directors, employees and consultants, as well as an independent directors compensation plan, which is a component of the Plan. Pursuant to the Plan, as of June 30, 2019, the Company’s independent directors were granted a total of 121,977 shares of restricted common stock for an aggregate $1.1 million, based on the share price on the date of each grant. The restricted stock granted prior to 2015 generally vested quarterly over four years and the restricted stock granted in and subsequent to 2015 generally vests quarterly over two years. However, the stock will become fully vested on the earlier occurrence of: (i) the termination of the independent director’s service as a director due to his or her death or disability; or (ii) a change in control of the Company.
The Company recognized equity-based compensation expense of $45,500 and $42,300 for the three months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively and $90,500 and $84,490 for the six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Equity-based compensation expense is related to the issuance of restricted stock to the independent directors and is recorded in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Unrecognized equity-based compensation for unvested shares totaled $0.3 million and $0.2 million as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Unvested shares totaled 35,940 and 20,827 as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively.
