NOTE 6 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION:

As of July 28, 2012, the Company had two long-term compensation plans pursuant to which stock-based compensation was outstanding or could be granted. The Company's 1987 Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan is for the granting of options to officers and key employees and the 2004 Amended and Restated Incentive Compensation Plan is for the granting of various forms of equity-based awards, including restricted stock and stock options to officers and key employees.

The following table presents the number of options and shares of restricted stock initially authorized and available for grant under each of the plans:

July 28, 2012	20,127	433,916	454,043

In accordance with ASC 718, the fair value of current restricted stock awards is estimated on the date of grant based on the market price of the Company's stock and is amortized to compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the related vesting periods. As of July 28, 2012, January 28, 2012 and July 30, 2011, there was $7.7 million, $ 6.0 million and $7.3 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to nonvested restricted stock awards, which have a remaining weighted-average vesting period of 2.8 years, 2.2 years and 2.7 years, respectively. The total fair value of the shares recognized as compensation expense during the second quarter and six months ended July 28, 2012 was $794,000 and $1,398,000, respectively compared to $790,000 and $1,257,000, respectively for the second quarter and six months ended July 30, 2011. These expenses are classified as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
