Equity Compensation Plan Information

The following table summarizes information as of April 30, 2016, about our equity compensation plans under which we have made grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, market value units, performance units, or other equity awards.

1Includes 1,411,701 Class B common shares to be issued upon exercise of stock-settled stock appreciation rights (SSARs); 67,426 Class B common restricted stock units (RSUs); 31,676 Class A common deferred stock units (DSUs); and 21,393 Class B common DSUs issued under the Brown-Forman 2004 or 2013 Omnibus Compensation Plans. Does not include issued shares of performance-based restricted stock. SSARs are exercisable for an amount of our common stock with a value equal to the increase in the fair market value of the common stock from the date the SSARs were granted. The fair market value of our common stock at fiscal year-end has been used for the purposes of reporting the number of shares to be issued upon exercise of the 3,426,162 SSARs outstanding at fiscal year-end.

2RSUs and DSUs have no exercise price because their value depends on continued employment or service over time, and are to be settled for shares of Class B common stock. Accordingly, these have been disregarded for purposes of computing the weighted-average exercise price.
