The following annual grants of restricted stock were made to members of the Company's independent directors, as payment of the annual retainer fees. The restricted stock grants for service years 2018 and 2019 vested on a pro-rata basis over the four consecutive 90-day periods following the date of grant. The restricted stock grants for service years 2020 and 2021 are scheduled to vest on the earlier of our next annual meeting of stockholders or the one-year anniversary of the date of grant.

A total of 22,210 shares of unvested restricted stock have been forfeited from the 2020 grant.

On March 15, 2021, the Company granted restricted stock to certain of its executives and employees.

The underlying valuation assumptions and results for the 2018 Class B OP Unit awards were:

Stock price$20.19 
Dividend yield4.95 %
Expected volatility25.70 %
Risk-free interest rate2.71 %
Number of Units granted:

256,087 
Calculated fair value per Unit$16.66 
Total fair value of Units$4,266,409 
Target market threshold increase$5,660,580 

The expected dividend yield assumptions were derived from the Company’s closing prices of the Common Stock on the grant dates and the projected future quarterly dividend payments per share of $0.25 for the 2018 awards.

For the 2018 awards, the Company's own stock price history was utilized as the basis for deriving the expected volatility assumption.

The risk-free rate assumptions were obtained from the Federal Reserve yield table and were calculated as the interpolated rate between the 20 and 30 year yield percentages on U. S. Treasury securities on the grant date.

Since the Class B OP Units have no expiration date, a derived service period of one year was utilized, which equals the period of time from the grant date to the initial valuation date.    
    Restricted Stock Units

The Company has granted restricted stock units, or RSUs, to certain employees of affiliates of the Company, as shown in the following table:
Grant date3/15/20211/2/20201/2/20191/2/2018
Service period2021-20242020-20222019-20212018-2020

Fair value per RSU$10.69 $9.47 $10.77 $16.66 
Total fair value of RSU grant$220,214 $202,658 $298,975 $345,195 

The RSUs vest in three equal consecutive one-year tranches from the date of grant. For each grant prior to March 15, 2021, on the Initial Valuation Date, the market capitalization of the number of shares of Common Stock at the date of grant is compared to the market capitalization of the same number of shares of Common Stock at the Initial Valuation Date. If the market capitalization measure results in an increase which exceeds the target market threshold, the Vested RSUs become earned RSUs and are settled in shares of Common Stock on a one-to-one basis. Vested RSUs may become Earned RSUs on a pro-rata basis should the result of the market capitalization test be an increase of less than the target market threshold. Any Vested RSUs that do not become Earned RSUs on the Initial Valuation Date are subsequently remeasured on a quarterly basis until such time as all Vested RSUs become Earned RSUs or are forfeited due to termination of continuous service due to an event other than as a result of a qualified event, which is generally the death or disability of the holder. Continuous service through the final valuation date is required for the Vested RSUs to qualify to become fully Earned RSUs. RSUs issued on March 15, 2021 may become vested subject only to satisfaction of the service requirement.

Because RSUs are valued using the identical market condition vesting requirement that determines the transition of the Vested Class B Units to Earned Class B Units, the same valuation assumptions per RSU were utilized to calculate the total fair values of the RSUs. The total fair value amounts pertaining to grants of RSUs, net of forfeitures, are amortized as compensation expense over the three one-year periods ending on the three successive anniversaries of the grant dates.
