​ Stock Options We did not issue any stock options during the third quarter of fiscal 2022 or fiscal 2021. Stock option activity during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2022 was as follows:

Exercisable at September 27, 2022 |  | 1,119 | ​ | $ | 48.10 | ​ | 3.5 | ​ | $ | 0
(1) | Aggregate intrinsic value is calculated as the difference between our closing stock price at fiscal period end and the exercise price, multiplied by the number of in-the-money options and represents the pre-tax amount that would have been received by the option holders, had they all exercised their options on the fiscal period end date.
​ There were no options exercised during the third quarters of fiscal 2022 or 2021. The total intrinsic value of options exercised during the first three quarters of fiscal 2022 and 2021 were $4.9 million and $7.1 million, respectively. As of September 27, 2022, total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested stock options was $3.1 million, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.9 years. Restricted Shares and Restricted Share Units ​ Restricted share and restricted share unit activity during the thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2022 was as follows: ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | ​
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | Weighted-
​ | ​ | ​ | ​ | Average

Forfeited |  | (110) | ​ | ​ | 41.91
Outstanding at September 27, 2022 |  | 2,440 | ​ | $ | 42.47
​ Fair value of our restricted shares and restricted share units is based on our closing stock price on the date of grant. The weighted average fair value for restricted shares and restricted share units issued during the third quarter of fiscal 2022 and 2021 was $28.59 and $51.95, respectively. The fair value of shares that vested during the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended September 27, 2022 was $1.9 million and $16.4 million, respectively. The fair value of shares that vested during the thirteen weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended September 28, 2021 was $2.1 million and $13.3 million, respectively. As of September 27, 2022, total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to unvested restricted shares and restricted share units was $53.3 million, which we expect to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 3.0 years.
