SEALED AIR CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (Continued) (Amounts in tables in millions of dollars, except share and per share data) Note 16 Shareholders’ Equity (Continued) directors elected at times other than at an annual meeting, at a price per share equal to the par value of the shares, as all or part of the annual or interim retainer fees for non-employee directors.
During 2002, the Company adopted a plan that permits non-employee directors to elect to defer all or part of their annual retainer until the non-employee director retires from the Board.
The non-employee director can elect to defer the portion of the annual retainer payable in shares of stock.
If a non-employee director makes this election, the non-employee director may also elect to defer the portion, if any, of the annual retainer payable in cash.
The Company charges the excess of fair value over the price at which shares are issued under this plan to operations at the date of the grant.
This charge is included in marketing, administrative and development expenses and amounted to $0.3 million in 2004, $0.3 million in 2003 and $0.4 million in 2002.
A summary of the changes in shares available for the Contingent Stock Plan and the Directors Stock Plan follows:

Other Common Stock Issuances During 2004 the Company issued 50,000 shares of its common stock, par value $0.10 per share, to a non-employee under an intellectual property purchase agreement as prepaid royalties under that agreement.
These shares vest ratably over a five-year period.
Amortization expense related to the issuance of 60,000 and 50,000 shares in 2000 and 1999, respectively, of the Company’s common stock in exchange for non-employee consulting services was $0.4 million, $0.8 million and $1.6 million, in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
These shares vest ratably over a three-to five-year period.
The Company amortizes the cost associated with these shares on a straight-line basis.
Redeemable Preferred Stock—Series A Convertible Preferred Stock On July 18, 2003, the Company used cash of $1,298.1 million, including net proceeds of the Company’s July 2003 senior notes offering of $1,261.1 million, to redeem all the outstanding shares of its Series A convertible preferred stock at their redemption price of $51.00 per share.
The $51.00 per share redemption price included a $1.00 per share redemption premium, or $25.5 million in the aggregate.
The $25.5 million paid for the redemption premium reduced shareholders’ equity and net earnings ascribed to common shareholders in 2003.

Employee compensation and benefits increased by $2.2 million or 4.3% to $54.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $52.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.
This increase was primarily attributable to higher wages, employment taxes and benefits and incentive compensation aggregating $1.9 million and higher stock-based compensation expense of $1.6 million, offset by increased wage capitalization related to software development of $1.3 million.
The increase in stock-based compensation expense was principally due to the cancelation of unvested stock options, restricted stock and performance shares related to the June 2011 resignation of the Company’s president.
The total number of employees increased to 206 as of December 31, 2012 from 189 as of December 31, 2011.

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $1.6 million or 29.8% to $6.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2012 from $5.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2011.
The increase was primarily due to an increase in amortization of software development costs of $0.9 million and an increase in depreciation for production hardware equipment of $0.4 million.
For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we capitalized $5.2 million and $4.1 million, respectively, of software development costs.
For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we capitalized $5.2 million and $3.2 million, respectively, of equipment and leasehold improvements.
The higher equipment purchases were primarily due to the build-out of a replacement disaster recovery data center.
decreased by 7.4% for the year ended December 31, 2013 compared to the year ended December 31, 2012, due mainly to lower trading volumes in U. S.  agency bonds.
Estimated U. S.  agency TRACE volumes declined by 33.6% in 2013.
