Restricted Stock Units

 

The Company issues time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance-based restricted stock units ("PSUs") to employees and non-employee members of the Board. Each RSU and PSU represents the right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock upon vesting and subsequent settlement. PSUs vest upon achievement of performance targets based on the Company's annual operating plan.

 

The fair values of RSUs and PSUs are determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant.
