On December 9, 2014, our Board of Directors adopted an LTIP (which provides for a 36 month vesting period) that included a stock component in the form of RSUs. Under this incentive program, RSUs will be granted to eligible employees annually and each annual grant will generally vest over a three year performance period. Our Board of Directors also approved that future cash dividends related to the RSUs will be set aside and paid in cash to each eligible employee when the RSUs are converted into shares of common stock. RSUs would be converted into shares of common stock on the earlier of a change in control of the Company (as defined in the 2015 LTIP) or on or after the third business day following the day that we file the Annual Report on Form 10-K with the SEC for the grant's final vesting year, but in no event later than December 31 of the year following the vesting date if the pre-established performance conditions are achieved. Any unvested RSUs awarded under the 2015 LTIP and the related cash dividends are forfeited if the participant terminates employment with the Company. On January 2, 2015, our Board of Directors granted 254,777 RSUs to eligible employees under the 2012 Equity Plan for the 2015 LTIP pursuant to a Restricted Stock Unit Agreement with a grant date fair value of $4.4 million .
