Weighted-average inputs and risk-free rate of return ranges used to calculate the grant date fair value of options

Option awards generally vest in one to four years, and have a ten year contractual term. All incentive and non-qualified stock option grants must have an exercise price no less than the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. The grant date fair values of options are based on the closing prices of the Company's common stock on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. Expected volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company's stock. The Company uses historical option exercise behavior and employee termination data to estimate expected term, which represents the period of time that the options granted are expected to remain outstanding. The risk-free rate of return for the estimated term of the option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant. The weighted-average inputs and risk-free rate of return ranges used to calculate the grant date fair values of options issued during fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010 are presented in the following table:

	Year Ended

Summary of the status of the Company's outstanding restricted stock awards

The Company periodically grants restricted stock awards. The restrictions on these awards lapse over a service period that has ranged from less-than-one to eight years.

No restricted stock awards were granted during fiscal 2010. The total fair value of awards for which restrictions lapsed was $0.5 million, $0.5 million and $0.4 million during fiscal years 2012, 2011 and 2010 respectively.
