As of May 31, 2016, the weighted average remaining contractual life of stock options outstanding and stock options exercisable was 4.3 years and 3.3 years, respectively. There was $3.0 million of total unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested stock option awards as of May 31, 2016. For the three months ended May 31, 2016 and May 31, 2015, stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options totaled $1.1 million and $.9 million, respectively. For each of the six- month periods ended May 31, 2016 and 2015, stock-based compensation expense associated with stock options totaled $2.0 million. The aggregate intrinsic value of both stock options outstanding and stock options exercisable was $15.9 million at May 31, 2016. (The intrinsic value of a stock option is the amount by which the market value of a share of the underlying common stock exceeds the exercise price of the stock option.)
Other Stock-Based Awards. From time to time, we grant restricted stock and PSUs to various employees as a compensation benefit. We recognized total compensation expense of $3.5 million for the three months ended May 31, 2016 and $3.3 million for the three months ended May 31, 2015 related to restricted stock and PSUs. We recognized total compensation expense of $5.5 million for the six months ended May 31, 2016 and $5.4 million for the six months ended May 31, 2015 related to restricted stock and PSUs.
