2012 Employee Stock Option Plan
 
In December 2012, the stockholders approved the 2012 Employee Stock Option Plan (the 2012 Employee Plan). The 2012 Employee Plan authorizes the granting of awards, the exercise of which would allow up to an aggregate of 950,000 shares of the Company's common stock to be acquired by the holders of such awards. Under this plan, the Company may grant stock options, which are intended to qualify as incentive stock options (ISOs), to valued employees. Any plan participant who is granted ISOs and possesses more than 10% of the voting rights of the Company's outstanding common stock must be granted an option with a price of at least 110% of the fair market value on the date of grant.
 
Under the 2012 Employee Plan, stock options may be granted to valued employees with a term of up to 10 years at an exercise price equal to or greater than the fair market value on the date of grant and are exercisable, in whole or in part, at 20% per year beginning on the date of grant. An option granted under this plan shall vest in full upon a “change in control” as defined in the plan. At December 31, 2014, 112,500 stock options were granted, 27,500 stock options were exercisable and 837,500 stock options were available for grant under this plan.
 
The fair value of each option granted during fiscal 2014 was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:
 
Risk-free interest rates
 
2.3
%
Expected lives
