Restricted Stock Units
On April 19, 2021, the Company granted the CEO Performance Award, which provided for a grant of 1.4 million RSUs consisting of five vesting tranches with a vesting schedule based upon achieving stock price targets as well as satisfying certain minimum service requirements. On December 21, 2023, the Company entered into the Cancellation Agreement with the CEO, which provided for the cancellation of
the 1.4 million market-based RSUs included in the CEO Performance Award. As of the date of the Cancellation Agreement, none of the stock price targets set forth in the CEO Performance Award had been met and all of the RSUs were unvested. The cancellation resulted in an acceleration of $7.5 million in unrecognized stock-based compensation expense from future periods into the fourth quarter of 2023. Accordingly, the Company recorded no stock-based compensation expense related to the CEO Performance Award during the three months ended March 31, 2024. During the three months ended March 31, 2023, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $1.5 million related to the CEO Performance Award.
For all RSUs, excluding the CEO Performance Award, the Company recorded stock-based compensation expense of $18.6 million and $19.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
