During the
three
month period ended
July 2, 2017,
1,343,716
stock options were granted to the executive officers of the Company. The stock options have an exercise price per share equal to the Company per share closing price on the grant date, and will vest at
20%
of the covered shares upon the Company’s average closing share price being above each of
$2.00,
$3.00,
$4.00,
$5.00
and
$6.00
for a
90
day period. If the share price does
not
meet the average closing share prices specified, the stock options will
not
vest. In the event of a Change in Control Event (as defined in the respective employment agreement), the options shall immediately expire to the extent they remain unvested; provided, however, the Company’s board of directors
may,
in its sole discretion, accelerate vesting effective immediately prior to, but contingent on, a Change in Control Event. To ensure alignment with shareholders, the options
may
not
be exercised, and
no
option shares
may
be sold, within
180
days of any portion of the options vesting, unless a Change in Control Event occurs. The options shall otherwise reflect the Company’s standard terms and conditions for employee option grants, including a
ten
-year term, and will vest with respect to whole shares only.
 
A binomial model was utilized to determine the fair value of the stock options issued during the
three
months ended
July 2, 2017.
The following weighted average assumptions were used in calculating the estimated fair value of the stock options issued during the quarter with performance conditions used to compute stock-based compensation expense:
