Performance- and Market-based awards The Company settled a portion of its incentive bonus payments to eligible employees by issuing performance-based RSU awards (“PRSUs”) from the 1995 Stock Plan. The Company granted 472,247 shares of PRSUs to certain employees for the three months ended March 27, 2020, all of which were fully vested at the time of grant for the purpose of settling amounts earned under the Company’s 2019 incentive bonus plans. The stock-based compensation recognized for these PRSUs was $3.0 million for the three months ended March 27, 2020. There were no PRSUs issued for purposes of settling amounts earned under the Company's incentive plans in the three months ended March 29, 2019. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company granted 67,910 performance-based RSUs to certain key executives that are expected to vest by the end of fiscal 2020. The vesting condition for these PRSUs include achievement of certain financial operating goals. The stock-based compensation recognized for all PRSUs which vest according to achievement of certain financial operating goals for the three months ended March 27, 2020 was $0.4 million. The unrecognized stock-based compensation of the PRSUs as of March 27, 2020 was $0.8 million which includes $0.4 million of unrecognized expense from PRSUs granted in 2019. 40,000 shares of PRSUs granted in 2019 had vested as of March 27, 2020. In the first quarter of 2020, the Company granted 182,830 market-based RSUs (“MRSUs”) under the 1995 Stock Plan to a key executive that is expected to vest during a three-year period. The vesting condition for the MRSUs include performance of the Company’s total shareholder return (“TSR”) relative to the TSR of the NASDAQ Telecommunication Index. The aggregate grant-date fair value of these shares was estimated to be $1.1 million using a Monte-Carlo simulation valuation method. The stock-based compensation recognized for all MRSUs for the three months ended March 27, 2020 was $0.1 million. The unrecognized stock-based compensation of the MRSUs as of March 27, 2020 was $1.8 million which includes $0.7 million of unrecognized expense from MRSUs granted in 2019. None of these MRSUs had vested as of March 27, 2020. French Retirement Benefit Plan The Company assumed obligations under a defined benefit pension plan in connection with the acquisition of its French subsidiary in 2016. The plan is unfunded and there are no contributions required by laws or funding regulations, discretionary contributions or non-cash contributions expected to be made. The table below presents the components of net periodic benefit costs (in thousands):
| Three months ended
| March 27, 2020 |  | March 29, 2019
Service cost | $ | 61 |  |  | $ | 57 |
Interest cost | 9 |  |  | 20 |
Net periodic benefit cost | $ | 70 |  |  | $ | 77 |
The present value of the Company’s pension obligation as of March 27, 2020 was $5.2 million, of which $0.1 million was reported as a component of “Accrued and other current liabilities” and $5.1 million was reported as a component of “Other non-current liabilities” on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The present value of the Company’s pension obligation as of December 31, 2019 was $5.3 million. 401(k) Plan The Company has a retirement/savings plan for its U.S. employees, which qualifies as a thrift plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. This plan allows participants to contribute up to the applicable Internal Revenue Code limitations under the plan. The Company has made discretionary contributions to the plan of 25% of the first 4% contributed by eligible participants, up to a maximum contribution per participant of $1,000 per year. The contributions for the three months ended March 27, 2020 and March 29, 2019 were $109,000 and $122,000, respectively. Stock-based Compensation The following table summarizes stock-based compensation for all plans (in thousands):
| Three months ended
| March 27, 2020 |  | March 29, 2019
Stock-based compensation in: |  |  |
Cost of revenue | $ | 770 |  |  | $ | 225 |

As of March 27, 2020, total unrecognized stock-based compensation cost related to unvested RSUs was $18.7 million and is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.17 years. Valuation Assumptions The Company estimates the fair value of employee stock options and stock purchase rights under the ESPP using a Black-Scholes option valuation model. The value of the stock purchase rights under the ESPP consists of: (1) the 15% discount on the purchase of the stock; (2) 85% of the fair value of the call option; and (3) 15% of the fair value of the put option. The call option and put option were valued using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.
| ESPP Purchase Period Ending
| July 1, 2020 |  | July 1, 2019 |
Expected term (years) | 0.5 |  |  | 0.5 |  |
Volatility | 50 | % |  | 43 | % |
Risk-free interest rate | 1.6 | % |  | 2.5 | % |
Expected dividends | 0.0 | % |  | 0.0 | % |
Estimated weighted average fair value per share at purchase date | $2.24 |  | $1.31 |
The expected term of the stock purchase rights under the ESPP represents the period of time from the beginning of the offering period to the purchase date. The Company uses its historical volatility for a period equivalent to the expected term of the options to estimate the expected volatility. The risk-free interest rate assumption is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with remaining terms similar to the expected term. The Company has not paid and does not plan to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.
