All stock options have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The fair value of each option award
was estimated using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. The weighted average fair value of options granted in 2014 was $12.23 and in 2013 was
$10.68.
The following table summarizes our stock option activity:

The intrinsic value of outstanding and exercisable stock options represents the excess of our closing stock price on January 30, 2016 ($49.75) over the
exercise price multiplied by the applicable number of stock options.
Nonvested stock awards
We have also awarded shares of nonvested common stock to eligible key employees and to our Board of Directors. Substantially all awards have
restriction periods tied primarily to employment and/or service. Employee awards generally vest over five years. Director awards vest over the term to which
the director was elected, generally one year. In lieu of cash dividends, nonvested stock awards are granted restricted stock equivalents which vest consistently
with the underlying nonvested stock awards.
The fair value of nonvested stock awards is the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. We may acquire shares from employees in lieu
of amounts required to satisfy minimum tax withholding requirements upon the vesting of the employee’s unvested stock award. Such shares are then
designated as treasury shares.
