Of the 714,630 stock options that were granted during the six months ended June 30, 2012, 83,042 were granted to certain directors pursuant to an election by such directors to receive all or a portion of their cash director fees in stock options.

 

The aggregate intrinsic value represents the total amount by which the value of the shares of common stock subject to such options exceeds the exercise price of such options, based on the Company’s closing stock price of $4.03 as of June 30, 2012.

 

Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $734 and $522, respectively. As of June 30, 2012, there was $2,640 of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock options, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 3.0 years.

 

Management calculates the fair value of stock options based upon the Black Scholes option pricing model. The following table summarizes the fair value and assumptions used in determining the fair value of stock options issued during the six months ended June 30, 2012.

The Company determined the options’ life based on the use of the simplified method.  As a newly public company, sufficient history to estimate the volatility of our common stock price is not available. The Company uses a basket of comparable public companies as a basis for the expected volatility assumption and dividend yield. The Company intends to continue to consistently apply this process using comparable companies until a sufficient amount of historical information regarding the volatility and dividend yield of the Company’s share price becomes available. The risk free interest rate is based on the yield of an applicable term Treasury instrument.
