Overall, the 2010 Long-Term Compensation Plan contemplates maximum potential awards of 1,179,987 LTIP Units and a cap of approximately $75 million when earned. However, sufficient shares were not available under the 2005 Plan to fund the entire 2010 Long-Term Compensation Plan in December 2009, and the awards granted at that time, in the aggregate, were limited to 744,128 LTIP Units, subject to performance-based and time-based vesting, unless and until additional shares became available under the 2005 Plan prior to the end of the performance period for the 2010 Long-Term Compensation Plan. At our annual meeting of stockholders on June 15, 2010, our stockholders approved the adoption of the 2005 Plan which, among other things, increased the number of shares available under the plan. That increase allowed us to award the balance of the LTIP Units due under the 2010 Long-Term Compensation Plan. The remaining awards were granted in June 2010. The cost of the 2010 Long-Term Compensation Plan (approximately $31.7 million, subject to forfeitures) will be amortized into earnings through the final vesting period. We recorded compensation expense of approximately $1.9 million, $3.7 million, $2.2 million and $4.2 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, related to the 2010 Long-Term Compensation Plan.

As of June 30, 2012, 96.8% of the 2011 Outperformance Plan had been granted. The cost of the 2011 Outperformance Plan for the 96.8% granted (approximately $26.1 million, subject to forfeitures) will be amortized into earnings through the final vesting period. We recorded compensation expense of approximately $1.4 million and $2.6 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively, related to this program.
