Share-Based Compensation and Savings Plans | Share-Based Compensation and Savings Plans Share-Based Compensation Plans We maintain stock incentive plans (collectively, the “Plans”) for the benefit of certain of our officers, directors and employees. At June 30, 2015, 22 million shares remain available for future grants under the Cardinal Health, Inc. 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan ("2011 LTIP"). Under the 2011 LTIP's fungible share counting provisions, stock options are counted against the plan as one share for every share issued; awards other than stock options are counted against the plan as two and one-half shares for every share issued. This means that only 9 million shares could be issued under awards other than stock options while 22 million shares could be issued under stock options. Shares are issued out of treasury shares when stock options are exercised and when restricted share units and performance share units vest. The following table provides total share-based compensation expense by type of award:
(in millions) | 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2013
Restricted share unit expense | $ | 69 |  |  | $ | 62 |  |  | $ | 60 |
Employee stock option expense | 21 |  |  | 21 |  |  | 23 |
Performance share unit expense | 20 |  |  | 13 |  |  | 10 |
Total share-based compensation | $ | 110 |  |  | $ | 96 |  |  | $ | 93 |
The total tax benefit related to share-based compensation was $38 million, $33 million and $32 million for fiscal 2015, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Stock Options Employee stock options granted under the Plans generally vest in equal annual installments over three years and are exercisable for periods ranging from seven to ten years from the grant date. All stock options are exercisable at a price equal to the market value of the common shares underlying the option on the grant date. The following table summarizes all stock option transactions under the Plans:
(in millions, except per share amounts) | Stock Options |  | Weighted-Average Exercise Price per Common Share
Outstanding at June 30, 2013 | 15 |  |  | $ | 36.97 |
Granted | 2 |  |  | 51.77 |

Outstanding at June 30, 2014 | 10 |  |  | $ | 39.16 |

The following tables provide additional detail related to stock option activity:

Aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding options at period end | $ | 281 |  |  | $ | 282 |  |  | $ | 156 |

Total fair value of shares vested during the year | 20 |  |  | 20 |  |  | 28 |
Weighted-average grant date fair value per stock option | 15.80 |  |  | 10.32 |  |  | 8.15 |
(in years) | 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2013
Weighted-average remaining contractual life of outstanding options | 6 |  | 6 |  | 4
Weighted-average remaining contractual life of exercisable options | 5 |  | 4 |  | 3
Weighted-average period over which stock option compensation cost is expected to be recognized | 2 |  | 2 |  | 2
Stock options are granted to our officers and certain employees. The fair values were estimated on the grant date using a lattice valuation model. We believe the lattice model provides reasonable estimates because it has the ability to take into account individual exercise patterns based on changes in our stock price and other variables, and it provides for a range of input assumptions, which are disclosed in the table below. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve at the time of the grant. We analyzed historical data to estimate option exercise behaviors and employee terminations to be used within the lattice model. The expected life of the options granted was calculated from the option valuation model and represents the length of time in years that the options granted are expected to be outstanding. Expected volatilities are based on implied volatility from traded options on our common shares and historical volatility over a period of time commensurate with the contractual term of the option grant (up to ten years). The following table provides the range of assumptions used to estimate the fair value of stock options:
| 2015 |  | 2014 |  | 2013
Risk-free interest rate | 1.8% | - | 2.1% |  | 1.9% | - | 2.0% |  | 1.1% | - | 1.3%
Expected volatility | 26% |  | 27% |  | 29%
Dividend yield | 1.7% | - | 1.9% |  | 1.8% | - | 2.4% |  | 2.1% | - | 2.5%
Expected life in years | 7 |  | 6 |  | 6
Restricted Share Units Restricted share units granted under the Plans generally vest in equal annual installments over three years. Restricted share units accrue cash dividend equivalents that are payable upon vesting of the awards. The following table summarizes all transactions related to restricted share units under the Plans:
(in millions, except per share amounts) | Restricted Share Units |  | Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share
Nonvested at June 30, 2013 | 3 |  |  | $ | 38.74 |

Performance Share Units Performance share units vest over a three-year performance period based on achievement of specific performance goals. Based on the extent to which the targets are achieved, vested shares may range from zero to 200 percent of the target award amount. Performance share units accrue cash dividend equivalents that are payable upon vesting of the awards. The following table summarizes all transactions related to performance share units under the Plans (based on target award amounts):
(in millions, except per share amounts) | Performance Share Units |  | Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value per Share
Nonvested at June 30, 2013 | 0.8 |  |  | $ | 41.37 |
Granted | 0.3 |  |  | 51.49 |
Vested (1) | (0.2 | ) |  | 41.60 |
