Equity Based Compensation	NOTE 7. EQUITY BASED COMPENSATION Employees of the Company participate in the News Corporation 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2013 LTIP”) under which equity-based compensation, including stock options, performance stock units (“PSUs”), restricted stock awards, RSUs and other types of awards can be granted. The Company has the ability to award up to 30 million shares under the terms of the 2013 LTIP. In connection with the acquisition of Move, the Company assumed Move’s equity incentive plans and substantially all of the awards outstanding under such plans. The stock options, RSUs and restricted stock awards that were assumed continue to have the same terms and conditions that applied to those awards immediately prior to the acquisition, except that such assumed awards were converted into awards with the right to be settled in, or by reference to, the Company’s Class A Common Stock in accordance with the acquisition agreement, using a formula designed to preserve the value of the awards based on the price per share paid in the acquisition. The Company assumed and converted approximately 4.3 million stock options and approximately 2.5 million RSUs and restricted stock awards in connection with the transaction. The Company recognized $9 million and $21 million of equity-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended December 31, 2014, respectively, and $12 million and $20 million for the corresponding periods of fiscal 2014, respectively. Performance Stock Units Fiscal 2015 During the six months ended December 31, 2014, the Company granted 3.1 million PSUs at target, of which 2.0 million will be settled in Class A Common Stock with the remaining, having been granted to executive directors and to employees in certain foreign locations, being settled in cash. Cash settled awards are marked-to-market each reporting period. During the six months ended December 31, 2014, approximately 2.0 million PSUs vested, of which approximately 1.5 million were settled in shares of Class A Common Stock before statutory tax withholdings. The remaining 0.5 million PSUs that settled during the six months ended December 31, 2014 were settled in cash for approximately $8.2 million before statutory tax withholdings. Fiscal 2014 During the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, the Company granted 4.3 million PSUs at target, of which 2.7 million will be settled in Class A Common Stock with the remaining, having been granted to executive directors and to employees in certain foreign locations, being settled in cash. Cash settled awards are marked to market each reporting period. Restricted Stock Units Fiscal 2015 During the six months ended December 31, 2014, approximately 0.4 million RSUs vested, of which approximately 0.3 million were settled in shares of Class A Common Stock before statutory tax withholdings. The remaining 0.1 million RSUs that settled during the six months ended December 31, 2014 were settled in cash for approximately $0.9 million before statutory tax withholdings. Fiscal 2014 During the three and six months ended December 31, 2013, the Company granted 0.1 million RSUs, all of which will be settled in Class A Common Stock.
