STOCK COMPENSATION PLANS
Our Board of Directors granted 1.8 million stock options and 0.2 million performance share units during the six months ended June 30, 2012 under our 2008 Performance Plan. The 2008 Performance Plan will expire on April 8, 2018. The weighted average exercise price per share and weighted average fair value per share of the stock option grants during the six months ended June 30, 2012 were $12.94 and $6.37, respectively. We estimated the fair value of the stock options using the following assumptions in our Black-Scholes model:
Expected term: 6.25 years
Interest rate: 1.11%
Volatility: 50.74%
Dividend yield: Nil
We measure the fair value of grants of performance share units based primarily on the closing market price of a share of our common stock on the date of the grant, modified as appropriate to take into account the features of such grants. The weighted average fair value per share was $13.57 for grants made during the six months ended June 30, 2012.
We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $4 million and $5 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, respectively. At June 30, 2012, unearned compensation cost related to the unvested portion of all stock-based awards was approximately $31 million and is expected to be recognized over the remaining vesting period of the respective grants, through June 2016. We recognized stock-based compensation expense of $6 million and $12 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively.
