(Issuance, Exercise, and Termination of Stock Options) On July 1, 2013, Hooker Financial Corporation granted 50,000 options to key executives. Each option allows the executive to purchase one share of Hookers $1 par value common stock at a price of $58 per share. The options were exercisable within a 2-year period beginning July 1, 2015, if the grantee is still employed by the company at the time of the exercise. On the grant date, Hookers stock was trading at $50 per share, and a fair value option-pricing model determines total compensation to be $350,000.

On July 1, 2015, 35,000 options were exercised when the market price of Hookers stock was $65 per share. The remaining options lapsed in 2015 because executives decided not to exercise their options.
