Stock Option Plan and Stock Grants	Stock Option Plan and Stock Grants We account for our stock-based compensation in accordance with the Codification Topic “Compensation – Stock Compensation” (“FASB ASC 718”). Stock-based compensation expense, reported in “General and administrative” on the Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income, for the quarters ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 was approximately $0.7 million and $1.1 million, respectively. Our Stock Option and Stock Award Plan (the “Plan”) was adopted in December 1992 and was amended and restated from time to time, most recently effective March 23, 2001 for a ten year term. After March 23, 2011, when the Plan expired, we granted to certain directors, executive officers and a consultant a total of 383,330 shares of restricted stock, net of the number of shares that were subsequently forfeited before vesting, in private placements exempt from registration. All the restricted stock shares issued (the “Restricted Stock Grants”) were approved by our Board of Directors at the recommendation of the Compensation, Nominating, and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board of Directors. The expiration of the Plan did not materially impact the accounting for these awards. At our 2014 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, we are asking our stockholders to ratify the Restricted Stock Grants.
