In 2014, we granted the following shares of common stock, restricted stock and restricted stock units

Restricted stock 284  43.15   12,269 0 - 4 years 
Restricted stock units 13  45.11   575 4 years 

For common stock grants, we measure fair value based on the closing stock price of our common stock on the grant date and expense it on the grant date.

Certain awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units contain a performance condition based on the ultimate results for the applicable underwriting year. The number of such shares that vest could be higher or lower than initially granted. We measure fair value for these awards based on the closing price of our common stock on the grant date, and we recognize expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period for those restricted stock awards or units expected to vest.

Certain of our executive officers were granted performance-based restricted stock in 2014. This restricted stock vests after three years and can vest from 0% to 200% of the initial shares granted. Vesting is determined equally based on an operating return on equity performance factor and a total shareholder return performance factor.
