No options were granted during fiscal 2023. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted was $211.58 and $63.32 during fiscal 2022 and 2021, respectively. The total grant-date fair value of stock options vested was $104 million, $314 million and $20 million during fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The intrinsic value of the options exercised, which represents the difference between the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of exercise and the exercise price of each option, was $108 million, $545 million and $772 million during fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As of January 31, 2023 and January 31, 2022, there was a total of $90 million and $210 million, respectively, of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to options, which is being recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.8 years. The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of stock options granted with the following assumptions:
| Year Ended January 31, |  |
| 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2021 |  |  |  |
Expected volatility | — | % |  | 46 | % |  | 45 | % |  |  |  |
Expected term (in years) | 0.0 |  | 6.3 |  | 6.3 |  |  |  |
Risk-free interest rate | — | % |  | 1.03% |  | 0.37% - 0.44% |  |  |  |
Expected dividend yield | — |  |  | — |  |  | — |  |  |  |  |
Restricted Stock Units A summary of RSU activity (inclusive of market-based RSUs) and related information was as follows:
| Number of RSUs (in thousands) |  | Weighted- Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share
Outstanding as of January 31, 2022 | 6,226 |  |  | $ | 207.26 |
Granted | 7,194 |  |  | 111.84 |
Vested | (2,556) |  |  | 180.81 |
Forfeited | (1,489) |  |  | 191.40 |
Outstanding as of January 31, 2023 | 9,375 |  |  | $ | 143.77 |
The Company granted 7,194,187 RSUs with an aggregate fair value of $805 million during fiscal 2023. As of January 31, 2023 and 2022, there was a total of $1,200 million and $1,152 million, respectively, of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested RSUs, which is being recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.0 years, based on vesting under the award service conditions. The total fair value of RSUs vested during fiscal 2023, 2022 and 2021 was $229 million, $531 million and $410 million, respectively. Market-based Restricted Stock Units In March 2022, the Company granted market-based RSUs to certain members of management. The target number of market-based RSUs granted was 58,150. One-third of these market-based RSUs vest over each of a one-, two- and three-year performance period, each starting on February 1, 2022. The number of shares that can be earned ranges from 0% to 200% of the target number of shares based on the relative performance of the per share price of the Company’s common stock as compared to the Nasdaq Composite Index over the respective performance periods and subject to continuous employment through the vesting dates. The $244.73 grant date fair value per target market-based RSU was determined using a Monte Carlo simulation approach. Compensation expense for awards with market conditions is recognized over the service period using the accelerated attribution method and is not reversed if the market condition is not met. Restricted Stock Awards Issued in Connection with Business Combinations In fiscal 2022, the Company entered into revesting agreements with the founders of the acquired businesses pursuant to which 1,269,008 restricted shares of Okta’s Class A common stock with a weighted-average fair value per share of $268.98 issued as of the respective closing dates will vest over 3 years. In connection with the business combinations, as of January 31, 2023, there was $141 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested restricted shares, which is being recognized over a weighted-average period of 1.3 years based on vesting under the award service conditions. Employee Stock Purchase Plan The ESPP provides for 12-month offering periods beginning June 21 and December 21 of each year, and each offering period consists of up to two six-month purchase periods. The ESPP contains a reset provision under which the offering period resets if the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the purchase date is less than the fair market value on the offering date. The Company estimated the fair value of ESPP purchase rights using a Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following assumptions:
|  | Year Ended January 31,
|  | 2023 |  | 2022 |  | 2021
Expected volatility |  | 63% - 90% |  | 44% - 48% |  | 48% - 54%
Expected term (in years) |  | 0.5 - 1.0 |  | 0.5 - 1.0 |  | 0.5 - 1.0
Risk-free interest rate |  | 2.46% - 4.67% |  | 0.06% - 0.29% |  | 0.09% - 0.18%
Expected dividend yield |  | — |  | — |  | —
