Share-Based Compensation | (12) Share-Based Compensation The shareholders of the Company approved the Provident Bancorp, Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Equity Plan”) on November 23, 2020, which is in addition to the Provident Bancorp, Inc. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2016 Equity Plan”), (collectively called the “Equity Incentive Plans”). Under the Equity Incentive Plans, the Company may grant options, restricted stock, restricted units or performance awards to its directors, officers and employees. Both incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options may be granted under the Equity Incentive Plans, with 902,344 and 1,021,239 shares reserved for options under the 2016 Equity Plan and 2020 Equity Plan, respectively. The exercise price of each option equals the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant and the maximum term of each option is ten years. The total number of shares reserved for restricted stock or restricted units is 360,935 and 408,495 under the 2016 Equity Plan and 2020 Equity Plan, respectively. The value of restricted stock grants is based on the market price of the stock on grant date. Options and awards vest ratably over 3 to 5 years. Expense related to options and restricted stock granted to directors is recognized in directors’ compensation within non-interest expense. Stock Options The fair value of each option is estimated on the date of the grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: Expected volatility is based on historical volatility because the Company’s common stock price. Expected life represents the period of time that the option is expected to be outstanding, taking into account the contractual term, and the vesting period. The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s expectation of dividend payouts. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant for a period equivalent to the expected life of the option. The fair value of options granted was determined using the following weighted-average assumptions as of grant date:
| 2022
Vesting period (years) |  | 5
Expiration date (years) |  | 10
Expected volatility |  | 33.70%
Expected life (years) |  | 7.5
