STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company's stock-based compensation expense primarily includes the fair value of restricted stock units (RSUs) and employees' purchase rights under the Company's Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Stock-based compensation expense was $6.8 million and $29.6 million, during the 13 and 39 weeks ended November 2, 2013, respectively.

The Company granted approximately 0.5 million service-based RSUs from the Omnibus Incentive Plan (Omnibus Plan) to employees and officers in the 39 weeks ended November 1, 2014. The estimated $26.4 million fair value of these RSUs is being expensed ratably over the three-year vesting periods, or a shorter period based on the retirement eligibility of certain grantees. The fair value was determined using the Company's closing stock price on the date of grant. The Company recognized $2.0 million and $8.7 million of expense related to these RSUs during the 13 and 39 weeks ended November 1, 2014.

In the 39 weeks ended November 1, 2014 the Company granted 0.2 million RSUs with a fair value of $10.0 million from the Omnibus Plan to certain officers of the Company, contingent on the Company meeting certain performance targets in fiscal 2014. If the Company meets these performance targets in fiscal 2014, the RSUs will vest ratably over three years. The estimated fair value of these RSUs is being expensed ratably over the three-year vesting periods, or a shorter period based on the retirement eligibility of certain grantees. The Company recognized $0.4 million and $6.4 million of expense related to these RSUs in the 13 and 39 weeks ended November 1, 2014.

In the 39 weeks ended November 1, 2014 the Company granted RSUs with a fair value of $2.0 million from the Omnibus Plan to certain officers of the Company, contingent on the Company meeting certain performance targets for the period beginning on February 2, 2014 and ending on January 28, 2017. Provided the vesting conditions are satisfied, the awards will vest at the end of the performance period. The estimated fair value of these RSUs is being expensed ratably over the three-year vesting period, or a shorter period based on the retirement eligibility of certain grantees. The Company recognized $0.1 million and $1.0 million of expense related to these RSUs in the 13 and 39 weeks ended November 1, 2014.

The Company recognized $4.2 million and $14.0 million of expense related to RSUs granted prior to fiscal 2014 in the 13 and 39 weeks ended November 1, 2014. For the 13 and 39 weeks ended November 2, 2013, the Company recognized $4.0 million and $13.1 million of expense related to these RSUs.
