Share-based Compensation

9. Share-based Compensation

We may grant incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, SSARs, restricted shares, and performance shares under our shareholder-approved 2020 Equity Incentive Plan ("2020 Plan") for up to 2.25 million common shares, plus 868,864 common shares, the number of shares that were remaining for grant under the 2016 Stock Incentive Plan ("2016 Plan") as of the effective date of the 2020 Plan, plus the number of shares remaining for grant under the 2016 Plan that are forfeited, settled in cash, canceled or expired. The aggregate number of shares that may be granted under the 2020 Plan is 3.1 million.

We may distribute authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares to satisfy share option and SSAR exercises or restricted share and performance share grants.

The fair value of restricted share and performance share grants is based on the closing price of our common shares on the grant date. For stock option and SSAR grants subject to a service condition, we estimate the fair value on the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with inputs including the closing market price at grant date, exercise price and assumptions regarding the risk-free interest rate, expected volatility of our common shares based on historical volatility, and expected term as estimated using the simplified method. We record compensation expense for restricted shares and SSAR grants subject to a service condition utilizing the graded vesting method. For SSAR grants subject to a market condition, we estimate the fair value on the grant date through a lattice option pricing model that utilizes a Monte Carlo analysis with inputs including the closing market price at grant date, exercise price, share price threshold, remaining contractual term and assumptions regarding the risk-free interest rate, suboptimal exercise factor, and expected volatility of our common shares based on historical volatility. We record compensation expense for SSAR grants subject to a market condition over the derived service period, which is an output of the lattice option pricing model.

The following table summarizes the share-based compensation expense for SSARs, restricted and performance grants included in the condensed consolidated statements of operations:
