STOCK OPTIONS

In 2012, pursuant to the recommendation of the Board of Directors, the stockholders ratified the creation of the Company’s 2012 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”), which superseded the 1990 Flexible Incentive Plan (the "1990 Plan").  The 2012 Plan is administered by a committee of the Board of Directors and provides for granting of various stock-based awards including stock options to eligible participants, primarily officers and certain key employees.  A total of 2,000,000 shares of common stock were available under the terms of the 2012 Plan plus shares outstanding under the 1990 Plan which expire or are otherwise forfeited, canceled or terminated after July 25, 2012, the Effective Date of the 2012 Plan.  As of June 30, 2013, there were 1,773,308 options available for future grants.  Options vest over a three to five year period from the date of grant, with a maximum term of five to ten years.

The fair value of each stock option grant was estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes pricing model.  The resulting compensation cost for fixed awards with graded vesting schedules is amortized on a straight-line basis over the vesting period for the entire award.  The expected term of awards granted is determined based on historical experience with similar awards, giving consideration to the expected term and vesting schedules.  The expected volatility is determined based on the Company’s historical stock prices over the most recent period commensurate with the expected term of the award.  The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term commensurate with the expected term of the award.  Expected pre-vesting option forfeitures are based on historical data.

As of June 30, 2013, there was approximately $1,235,324 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to stock options granted under the 2012 Plan and 1990 Plan.  This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.71 years.  Total unrecognized compensation cost will be adjusted for any future changes in estimated and actual forfeitures.   The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $583,069 and $480,623 in 2013 and 2012, respectively.  These expenses were included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

There was no cash received from stock option exercises during 2013 or 2012.

The per share weighted average fair value of the stock options granted during the years ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were $1.67 and $1.99, respectively.  The fair value of each option granted is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.  For the options granted in 2013 and 2012, the Company used the following weighted-average assumptions:

	2013		2012
Expected stock price volatility	58	%	56	%
Risk free interest rate	0.52	%	1.31	%
Expected dividend yield	4.00	%	4.00	%
Expected forfeitures	1.50	%	1.50	%
Expected life of options	4.6 years		4.7 years

The following table identifies options granted, exercised, canceled, or available for exercise pursuant to the 1990 Plan and the 2012 Plan:
