Awards of Shares of Restricted Common Stock and Restricted Stock Units under our 2013 Plan

We have issued awards with service, performance and market conditions that vest from 2019 to 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2019, our board of directors awarded employees and directors 192,893 shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units that vest from 2019 to 2022. As of March 31, 2019, as it relates to previously issued restricted stock awards with performance conditions, we have concluded that it is probable that the performance conditions will be met.

For the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recorded $4 million of equity-based compensation expense as compared to $2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The total unrecognized compensation expense related to awards of shares of restricted stock and restricted stock units was approximately $13 million as of March 31, 2019. We expect to recognize compensation expense related to these awards over a weighted-average term of approximately 2 years. A summary of the unvested shares of restricted common stock that have been issued is as follows:
