Stock-Based Compensation

We issue stock-based incentive awards to our eligible employees and Directors under the 2002 Employee Stock Incentive Plan and a Director Deferred Stock Ownership Plan. No further awards may be granted under the 1993 Employee Stock Incentive Plan and any remaining outstanding options under the 1993 Employee Stock Incentive Plan expired in the first quarter of 2013. The 2002 Employee Stock Incentive Plan permits the granting of nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance stock, restricted stock and other stock-based awards.
