Stock-Based Compensation and Stock Awards | Stock-Based Compensation and Stock Awards Stock Options On May 13, 2004, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2004 Incentive Plan of Dril-Quip, Inc. (as amended in 2012 and approved by the Company’s stockholders on May 10, 2012, the “2004 Plan”), which reserved up to 2,696,294 shares of common stock to be used in connection with the 2004 Plan. Persons eligible for awards under the 2004 Plan are employees holding positions of responsibility with the Company or any of its subsidiaries and members of the Board of Directors. Options granted under the 2004 Plan have a term of ten years and become exercisable in cumulative annual increments of one-fourth of the total number of shares of common stock subject thereto, beginning on the first anniversary of the date of the grant. The fair value of stock options granted was estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The expected life was based on the Company’s historical trends, and volatility is based on the historical volatility over the expected life of the options. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury yield curve at the grant date. The Company does not pay dividends and, therefore, there is no assumed dividend yield. Option activity for the year ended December 31, 2016 was as follows: Number of Options Weighted Average Price Aggregate intrinsic value (in millions) Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Life (in years) Outstanding at December 31, 2015 415,122 55.64 Granted — — Exercised (54,350 ) 40.61 Forfeited (8,813 ) 67.71 Outstanding at December 31, 2016 351,959 $ 57.66 $ 2.5 3.5 Exercisable at December 31, 2016 351,959 $ 57.66 $ 2.5 3.5 The total intrinsic value of stock options exercised in 2016 , 2015 and 2014 was $1.0 million , $0.8 million and $2.0 million , respectively.

Restricted Stock Awards On October 28, 2016 and 2015 , pursuant to the 2004 Plan, the Company awarded officers, directors and key employees restricted stock awards (RSAs), which is an award of common stock subject to time vesting. In May 2012, the Board of Directors amended the 2004 Plan to include non-employee directors as eligible for RSAs. The awards issued under the 2004 Plan are restricted as to transference, sale and other disposition. These RSAs vest ratably over a three year period. The RSAs may also vest in case of a change of control. Upon termination, whether voluntary or involuntary, the RSAs that have not vested will be returned to the Company resulting in stock forfeitures. The fair market value of the stock on the date of grant is amortized and charged to selling, general and administrative expense over the stipulated time period over which the RSAs vest on a straight-line basis, net of estimated forfeitures.

Performance Unit Awards On October 28, 2016 and 2015 , pursuant to the 2004 Plan, the Company awarded performance unit awards (Performance Units) to officers and key employees.

Under the plan, participants may earn from 0% to 200% of their target award based upon the Company’s relative total share return (TSR) in comparison to the 15 component companies of the Philadelphia Oil Service Index. The TSR is calculated over a three year period from October 1, 2015 and 2016 to September 30, 2018 and 2019 , respectively, and assumes reinvestment of dividends for companies within the index that pay dividends, which Dril-Quip does not.
