The Company uses the Black Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value and compensation cost associated with employee incentive stock options which requires the consideration of historical employee exercise behavior data and the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the Company’s stock price, the weighted average risk-free interest rate and the weighted average expected life of the options. There were 6,000 and 16,000 options granted during the three and six months ended June 29, 2014, respectively. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of the stock options issued during the three and six months ended June 29, 2014 were $2.41 and $2.45, respectively. There were zero and 443,500 options granted during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, respectively. The weighted-average grant-date fair value of the stock options issued during the six months ended June 30, 2013 was $1.72.
