The aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding service-based restricted stock awards was $9.6 million at June 30, 2021. The restrictions on the service-based awards generally lapse or vest annually, primarily over four-year and three-year periods.

The total fair value of performance-based restricted stock awards that vested during the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $2.0 million. The aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding performance awards at June 30, 2021 expected to vest was $16.6 million. The performance awards are based on one-year performance periods but cliff vest in approximately three years from grant date.

The compensation for all awards is charged to selling, general and administrative expense over the respective grants’ vesting periods, primarily on a straight-line basis. The amount charged was approximately $4.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and $2.0 million in 2020. Forfeitures are recognized as they occur. As of June 30, 2021, the total compensation cost related to unvested equity awards was approximately $10.4 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of two years.
