Restricted Stock Units - The Company grants restricted stock units which gives the recipient the right to receive shares of Company stock upon vesting. The fair value of each restricted stock unit is the market value of Company stock on the date of grant. 100% of the restricted stock unit awards vest three years from the grant date. Once vested, the restricted stock units become vested units and are no longer forfeitable. Vested units settle upon retirement of the recipient. Unvested restricted stock unit awards will generally be forfeited if the recipient ceases to be employed by the Company, with limited exceptions.

The following table summarizes information about restricted stock unit activity for the year ended December 31, 2020. The Company started granting restricted stock units in 2018.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Arrow sponsors an ESPP under which employees purchase Arrow's common stock at a 5% discount below market price. Under current accounting guidance, a stock purchase plan with a discount of 5% or less is not considered a compensatory plan.

Employee Stock Ownership Plan

Arrow maintains an employee stock ownership plan (“ESOP”).  Substantially all employees of Arrow and its subsidiaries are eligible to participate upon satisfaction of applicable service requirements.  The ESOP borrowed funds from one of Arrow’s subsidiary banks to purchase outstanding shares of Arrow’s common stock.  The notes required annual payments of principal and interest through 2019.  As the debt was repaid, shares were released from collateral based on the proportion of debt paid to total debt outstanding for the year and allocated to active employees.  At December 31, 2020, there was no outstanding balance remaining on the loans and therefore no remaining unallocated shares. In addition, the Company makes additional cash contributions to the Plan each year.

Schedule of ESOP Compensation Expense
202020192018
ESOP Compensation Expense$1,619 $1,368 $1,400 

Prior to December 31, 2019, shares pledged as collateral were reported as unallocated ESOP shares in stockholders’ equity.  As shares were released from collateral, Arrow reported compensation expense equal to the current average market price of the shares, and the shares become outstanding for earnings per share computations. During the year ended December 31, 2019, all remaining unallocated shares were released.
