Patterson Cos. stopped awarding stock options as part of the company's long-term incentive plan compensation in 2006 but brought back those awards for senior executives this year. Anderson received 20,200 new stock options with a grant date present value of $174,528.
The compensation committee chose to reinstitute stock options as a part of the long-term equity award component "to reflect current trends in equity compensation practices, to cause a greater percentage of noncash compensation to be performance-based and to facilitate retention through use of a longer term to full vesting."
