The Company estimates the fair value of stock options granted using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-pricing model.  This fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period.

On March 25, 2013, stock options issued on March 25, 2009 became fully vested. These options had vested equally over four years beginning on the first anniversary following the grant date. In the first half of both fiscal 2013 and 2012, less than $0.1 million was recorded as expense related to these stock options.

Restricted Stock Compensation/Awards

Annually, the Company grants restricted shares to its Board of Directors. The shares become fully vested one year from their grant date. The fair value of each restricted stock grant is based on the closing price of the Company's stock on the date of grant. The Company amortizes the expense over the service period, which is the fiscal year in which the award is granted. On May 3, 2013, the Company granted 18,666 restricted shares for service in fiscal 2013. Expense related to the Board of Directors' restricted stock in the first half of fiscal 2013 and 2012 was $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively. As of June 15, 2013, there was $0.2 million unrecognized expense associated with these awards, which will be recorded throughout fiscal 2013. On May 4, 2013 11,493 shares granted to the Board for service in fiscal 2012 vested.
 
In March 2011, the Company granted 92,909 restricted shares to certain members of management under the Company's 2010 Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP).  These restricted shares are subject to a graded vesting schedule over a three year period starting January 1, 2012.  In October 2011, the Company granted 12,783 restricted shares based on the completion of the front part of the used oil re-refinery. As of June 15, 2013 and December 29, 2012, there was approximately $0.2 million and $0.4 million of unrecognized compensation expense related to these awards, respectively. The Company continues to record compensation expense through the vesting period of these awards. In the first half of fiscal 2013 and 2012, the Company recorded expense of approximately $0.2 million and $0.2 million related to these awards, respectively.

In February 2012, the Company granted 59,502 restricted shares to certain members of management under the Company's 2011 Long Term Incentive Plan (LTIP). These restricted shares are subject to a graded vesting schedule over a three year period starting January 1, 2013. There was approximately $0.5 million and $0.7 million of unrecognized compensation expense remaining related to these awards as of June 15, 2013 and December 29, 2012 respectively. In the first halves of fiscal 2013 and 2012, $0.2 million and $0.1 million of compensation expense was recorded related to these awards, respectively.

On February 7, 2013, the Company granted 10,000 restricted shares to a member of management based on the performance of the individual in fiscal 2012 and having met certain goals. The restricted shares are subject to a graded vesting schedule over a three year period. Based on the relevant guidance, the Company determined that the service inception date was prior to the grant date, and therefore the Company began accruing compensation expense related to these awards in fiscal 2012. There was approximately $0.1 million of unrecognized compensation expense remaining related to this award as of June 15, 2013 and December 29, 2012. In each of the first halves of fiscal 2013 and 2012, less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million of compensation expense was recorded related to this award, respectively.

In February 2013, as part of management's annual compensation for fiscal 2013, the Company approved a plan to grant certain members of management restricted shares in the future based on the Company's performance in fiscal 2013. Based on the relevant guidance, the Company determined that the service inception date for these awards was prior to the grant date and therefore began accruing compensation expense in fiscal 2013, based on the Company's assessment as to the probability that the performance criteria would be achieved. As such, there was approximately $1.6 million in unrecognized compensation expense remaining related to these awards as of June 15, 2013. In the first half of fiscal 2013, $0.2 million of compensation expense was recorded related to these awards.
