The weighted-average grant date fair value of these option grants was $1.29 per share. A total of 625,826 options vested during the six months ended December 31, 2012. All option grants have a 10-year contractual life.

In determining the grant date fair value of options, the Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The Company calculated the Black-Scholes value of options awarded during the six months ended December 31, 2012 based on the following key assumptions:

 

Expected term (in years)

     5.50 - 6.25   

Stock volatility

     94.7% - 97.8

Risk-free interest rate

     0.81% - 0.98

During the three months ended September 30, 2012, the last remaining 112,500 options under the Plan expired unexercised.
