Stock-Based Compensation | Note 11. Stock-Based Compensation 2015 Equity Incentive Plan In January 2015, our board of directors adopted our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan (2015 Plan), which became effective prior to the completion of our IPO. A total of 12,200,000 shares of Class A common stock was initially reserved for issuance pursuant to future awards under our 2015 Plan. The number of shares of our Class A common stock available for issuance under our 2015 Plan will be increased on the first day of each fiscal year, with such increase equal to the lesser of: (i) 12,200,000 shares; (ii) 5% of the outstanding shares of our capital stock as of the last day of our immediately preceding fiscal year; or (iii) such other amount as our board of directors may determine. Additionally, any shares subject to outstanding awards under our 2006 Equity Incentive Plan (2006 Plan) or 2011 Equity Incentive Plan (2011 Plan) that are cancelled or repurchased subsequent to our 2015 Plan’s effective date will be returned to the pool of shares reserved for issuance under our 2015 Plan. Awards granted under our 2015 Plan may be (i) incentive stock options, (ii) nonstatutory stock options, (iii) restricted stock units, (iv) restricted stock awards or (v) stock appreciation rights, as determined by our board of directors at the time of grant. Options and restricted stock units generally vest 25% one year from the vesting commencement date and (a) in the case of options, 1/48th per month thereafter, and (b) in the case of restricted stock units, 1/16th per quarter thereafter. As of January 31, 2016, 13,777,992 shares are reserved for future issuance under our 2015 Plan. 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan In January 2015, our board of directors adopted our 2015 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (2015 ESPP), which became effective prior to the completion of our IPO. A total of 2,500,000 shares of Class A common stock was initially reserved for issuance under our 2015 ESPP. The number of shares of our Class A common stock available for issuance under our ESPP will be increased on the first day of each fiscal year beginning in fiscal 2016, with such increase equal to the least of: (i) 2,500,000 shares; (ii) 1% of the outstanding shares of our capital stock on the first day of such fiscal year; or (iii) such other amount as our board of directors may determine. Our 2015 ESPP allows eligible employees to purchase shares of our Class A common stock at a discount of up to 15% of their eligible compensation through payroll deductions, subject to any plan limitations. Except for the initial offering period, our 2015 ESPP provides for 24-month offering periods beginning March 16 and September 16 of each year, and each offering period will consist of four six-month purchase periods. On each purchase date, eligible employees will purchase our stock at a price per share equal to 85% of the lesser of (1) the fair market value of our stock on the offering date or (2) the fair market value of our stock on the purchase date. Our 2015 ESPP also has a feature whereby the offering period resets for a new 24 months if the fair value of our common stock on the last day of any purchase period is less than the original offering price. As of January 31, 2016, 2,761,742 shares are reserved for future issuance under our 2015 ESPP. Early Exercises of Stock Options Prior to our IPO, certain employees and directors exercised stock options prior to vesting with the approval of our board of directors. The unvested shares are subject to a repurchase right held by us at the original purchase price. Early exercises of options are not deemed to be substantive exercises for accounting purposes, and accordingly, amounts received for early exercises are initially recorded in other liabilities and are reclassified to common stock and additional paid-in capital as the underlying shares vest. As of January 31, 2016 and 2015, we had $11,000 and $286,000, respectively, in liabilities and 9,375 and 113,541 unvested shares, respectively, subject to repurchase related to early exercises of stock options.

The aggregate intrinsic value of exercised options for the years ended January 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $24.8 million, $27.5 million and $17.8 million, respectively. The aggregate estimated fair value of stock options granted to employees that vested during the years ended January 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $16.7 million, $16.4 million and $7.4 million, respectively. The weighted-average grant date fair value of options granted to employees during the years ended January 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $6.72, $7.46 and $4.75 per share, respectively.

The assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model were determined as follows: Fair Value of Common Stock. Prior to our IPO in January 2015, our board of directors considered numerous objective and subjective factors to determine the fair value of our common stock at each grant date. These factors included, but were not limited to, (i) contemporaneous valuations of common stock performed by unrelated third-party specialists; (ii) the prices for our redeemable convertible preferred stock sold to outside investors; (iii) the rights, preferences and privileges of our redeemable convertible preferred stock relative to our common stock; (iv) the lack of marketability of our common stock; (v) developments in the business; and (vi) the likelihood of achieving a liquidity event, such as an IPO or a merger or acquisition of Box, given prevailing market conditions. Subsequent to the completion of our IPO, we use the market closing price for our Class A common stock as reported on the New York Stock Exchange. Expected Term. The expected term represents the period that our share-based awards are expected to be outstanding. The expected term assumptions were determined based on the vesting terms, exercise terms and contractual lives of the options and ESPP purchase rights. Expected Volatility. Since we do not have sufficient trading history of our common stock, the expected volatility was derived from the historical stock volatilities of several unrelated public companies within the same industry that we consider to be comparable to our business over a period equivalent to the expected term of the stock option grants and ESPP purchase rights. Risk-free Interest Rate. The risk-free rate that we use is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with remaining terms similar to the expected term on the options. Dividend Yield. We have never declared or paid any cash dividends and do not plan to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future, and, therefore, use an expected dividend yield of zero.
