Note 7. STOCK INCENTIVE PLANS

The Company has various stock incentive plans that provide for the granting of stock options, nonqualified stock options, SARs, restricted stock, performance units or shares and other incentive awards to certain employees and directors.  Options have been granted at or above the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant, typically vest over a three-year period, and are exercisable not less than twelve months or more than ten years after the date of grant.  SARs have been granted at or above the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant, typically vest over periods up to three years, and expire ten years from the date of issue.  No more than 50% of the cumulative number of vested SARs held by an employee can be exercised in any one calendar year.
