Share-Based Incentive Plan
Share-Based Incentive Plan
The Company’s shareholders have approved the 2003 Long-Term Incentive Plan (as amended, the “2003 Plan”). Under the 2003 Plan, 55,300,000 ordinary shares are reserved for issuance to key employees, consultants, independent contractors and non-employee directors of the Company through a variety of incentive awards, including: stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SAR”), restricted shares and units, performance awards (“PSU”), other stock-based awards and short-term cash awards. Stock option awards are granted at the fair market value of the shares underlying the options at the date of the grant, generally become exercisable over periods ranging from three to four years, and generally expire in ten years. Upon approval of the 2003 Plan, no further grants of stock options have been made under any other previous plan.

In February 2014, Mylan’s Compensation Committee and the independent members of the Board of Directors adopted the One-Time Special Performance-Based Five-Year Realizable Value Incentive Program (the “2014 Program”) under the 2003 Plan. Under the 2014 Program, certain key employees received a one-time, performance-based incentive award (the “Awards”) either in the form of a grant of SAR or PSU. The Awards were granted in February 2014 and contain a five-year cliff-vesting feature based on the achievement of various performance targets, external market conditions and the employee’s continued services.
The following table summarizes stock option and SAR (“stock awards”) activity:

As of December 31, 2015, stock awards outstanding, stock awards vested and expected to vest, and stock awards exercisable had average remaining contractual terms of 6.29 years, 6.18 years and 5.13 years, respectively. Also at December 31, 2015, stock awards outstanding, stock awards vested and expected to vest and stock awards exercisable had aggregate intrinsic values of $175.6 million, $172.8 million and $157.3 million, respectively.
On June 10, 2015, 4.1 million shares of the Company’s performance-based SARs were converted into 1.1 million restricted ordinary shares (the “Restricted Ordinary Shares”) pursuant to the terms of the 2014 Program. In addition, the maximum number of the Company’s performance restricted stock units (“PRSU”) granted under the 2014 Program that could vest was fixed at 1.4 million units. The fair value of the performance-based SARs and PRSUs were determined using a Monte Carlo simulation as both the SARs and PRSUs contain the same performance and market conditions. During the year ended December 31, 2015, the Company recorded additional share-based compensation expense of approximately $21.8 million related to the accelerated vesting of equity awards as a result of the EPD Transaction.
A summary of the status of the Company’s nonvested restricted stock and restricted stock unit awards, including PSUs (“restricted stock awards”) as of December 31, 2015 and the changes during the year ended December 31, 2015 are presented below:

Of the 1,292,783 awards granted during the year ended December 31, 2015, 4,414 vest ratably over four years, 769,963 vest ratably over three years and 79,306 vest ratably over 2.3 years. Of the remaining awards granted, 3,522 will cliff vest after three years, 165,086 will vest after three years and are subject to performance conditions, 237,912 will vest after 2.3 years and are subject to market conditions, and 32,580 will cliff vest after six months.

As of December 31, 2015, the Company had $129.1 million of total unrecognized compensation expense, net of estimated forfeitures, related to all of its stock-based awards, which will be recognized over the remaining weighted average vesting period of 2.2 years. The total intrinsic value of stock-based awards exercised and restricted stock units converted during the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2014 was $260.1 million and $162.2 million, respectively.

2003 Plan
With respect to options granted under the Company’s share-based compensation plans, the fair value of each option grant was estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Black-Scholes utilizes assumptions related to volatility, the risk-free interest rate, the dividend yield and employee exercise behavior. Expected volatilities utilized in the model are based mainly on the implied volatility of the Company’s stock price and other factors. The risk-free interest rate is derived from the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The model incorporates exercise and post-vesting forfeiture assumptions based on an analysis of historical data. The expected lives of the grants are derived from historical and other factors.
The assumptions used for options granted under the 2003 Plan are as follows:

2014 Program
Under the 2014 Program, approximately 4.4 million SARs and 1.5 million PSUs were granted. The fair value of the Awards was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation as both the SARs and PSUs contain the same performance and market conditions. The Monte Carlo simulation involves a series of random trials that result in different future stock price paths over the contractual life of the SAR or PSU based on appropriate probability distributions. Conditions are imposed on each Monte Carlo simulation to determine if the extent to which the performance conditions would have been met, and therefore the extent to which the Awards would have vested, for the particular stock price path. The market condition was met on June 10, 2015. In determining the fair value of the performance-based SARs and PRSUs, the Company considered the achievement of the market condition in determining the estimated fair value. The Restricted Ordinary Shares and PRSUs remain subject to the achievement of the performance condition and the employee’s continued service.
Each SAR or PSU is equal to one ordinary share with the maximum value of each Award upon vesting subject to varying limitations.
