Stock-Based Compensation Arrangements:
Stock-Based Compensation Arrangements:
Our stock-based compensation plans permit us to grant awards of restricted stock to our employees and non-employee directors. Certain of these awards are subject to performance-based criteria. The fair value of all stock-based awards, less estimated forfeitures, if any, and portions capitalized as described below, is recognized as stock-based compensation expense in “General and administrative expenses” in the Consolidated Financial Statements over the period that services are required to be provided in exchange for the award.
The following table summarizes stock-based compensation expense and associated tax benefit recognized in the Consolidated Financial Statements:
