In December 2013, the board of directors adopted the original 2013 Plan. Under the original 2013 Plan team members, directors and consultants of the Company may receive incentive stock options and other awards. A total of 900,000 shares of common stock of BGSF, Inc. were initially reserved for issuance pursuant to the original 2013 Plan. On November 3, 2020 and May 16, 2017, stockholders of the Company approved and made effective amendments to the 2013 Plan, which each added an additional 250,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance, for total of 500,000 shares. To the extent any option or award expires unexercised or is canceled, terminated or forfeited in any manner without the issuance of common stock thereunder, such shares shall again be available for issuance under the original 2013 Plan. As of December 26, 2021, a total of 1,043,630 shares remain available for issuance under the 2013 Plan.

The term of each option is determined by the board of directors but cannot exceed 10 years. Unless otherwise specified in an option agreement, options vest and become exercisable on the following schedule: 20% immediately and 20% on each anniversary date of the grant date. Each option shall be designated as an incentive stock option (“ISO”) or a non-qualified option (“NQO”). The exercise price of an ISO shall not be less than the fair market value of the stock covered by the ISO at the grant date; provided, however, the exercise price of an ISO granted to any person who owns, directly or indirectly, stock of the Company constituting more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of outstanding stock of the Company or of any affiliate of the Company, shall not be less than 110% of such fair market value.

The fair value of each option award was estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option pricing model and the assumptions in the following table. Because this option valuation model incorporates ranges of assumptions for inputs, those ranges are disclosed below. The Company bases the estimate of expected volatility on the historical volatilities of the Company for a period equal to the expected life of the option.

The risk-free rate for periods within the expected term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. The Company expects to use historical data to estimate team member termination within the valuation model; separate groups of team members that have similar historical termination behavior are considered separately for valuation purposes. The Company believes these estimates and assumptions are reasonable. However, these estimates and assumptions may change in the future based on actual experience as well as market conditions.

For Fiscal 2021, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized $0.6 million, $0.5 million and $0.6 million of compensation expense from continuing operations related to stock awards, respectively. Unamortized share-based compensation expense from continuing operations as of December 26, 2021 amounted to $0.9 million which is expected to be recognized over the next 2.4 years.
