population when we started. We have a track record of securing growth platforms and building on those. This service-based business will be driven out of St. Louis. I will personally be in St. Louis tonight. I will not let the first day eclipse without spending time with the leadership in St. Louis face to face, and we will make a significant commitment to that community and the other communities that legacy Express Scripts serves in, including our employment commitment. We want to grow the business. Growth creates more opportunity, so we understand that community responsibility. And lastly, as I referenced before, it’s post-symbolic and substantive. We step forward with another 200million dollar commitment to a foundation. That goes to community health and community social programs, and will be directed as it always has in communities we’re deepest in, and we understand the communities that legacy Express Scripts is deepest in, starting with St. Louis.

On September 26, 2011, we received $1.0 million from the State of Pennsylvania to help fund our agreement to start-up a new facility.The grant carried with it an obligation, or commitment, to employ at least 232 people within a three-year time period that ended on December 31, 2013.We received an extension of time to meet this employment commitment.The new deadline is April 30, 2016.This grant contains conditions that would require us to return a pro-rata amount of the monies received if we fail to meet these conditions.As such, the monies have been recorded as a liability in the accrued liabilities line item on the balance sheet until we are irrevocably entitled to retain the monies, or until it is determined that we need to return a portion or all of the monies received.

The Employment Agreement provided for a base salary of $1.2million per year, an annual target bonus of 150% of salary, and $14million in time-based long-term incentives, with $7million granted in restricted stock units (RSUs) and $7million in restricted cash because share availability under the stock plan was constrained. The long-term incentives vested in equal quarterly installments over the two-year term of the Employment Agreement, which reflected Mr.Rittenmeyer’s employment commitment. The long-term incentive grant was not performance-based because the employment commitment was limited, the turnaround strategy was still being formulated, and stock price recovery reflected in Mr.Rittenmeyer’s RSUs and earlier performance option grant was the primary performance focus. Due to a delay in granting Mr.Rittenmeyer’s RSUs, he initially received 51,146 fewer units than the HR Committee intended. As a result, the HR Committee subsequently granted Mr.Rittenmeyer these units in 2018 with a grant-date value of approximately $1.7million. Under the Employment Agreement, Mr.Rittenmeyer is not covered by Tenet’s Executive Severance Plan.
