(c) Potentially Dilutive Securities The following table summarizes potentially dilutive securities, and the resulting common share equivalents outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and 2022:
(d) Stock Options All existing options (the “Original Awards”) to purchase common shares of the Company issued to officers were cancelled and extinguished for no consideration on the date of closing the Recapitalization Transaction. On September 19, 2022, the Board awarded stock options to two officers of the Company as replacement awards for the Original Awards under the Company’s Amended and Restated Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”) dated October 15, 2018. The Original Awards were cancelled on June 24, 2022, as part of the Recapitalization Transaction, and the new stock options were granted on September 19, 2022 (the “Replacement Stock Options”). As the fair value of the Original Awards was $Nil on the modification date, the incremental compensation cost recognized is equal to the fair value of the Replacement Stock Options on the modification date, which shall be recognized over the remaining requisite service period. The Replacement Stock Options granted vested fully after the three-year grant period ended on July 10, 2023. Accordingly, the unrecognized compensation cost is $Nil, having been amortized on a straight-line basis over the weighted average requisite service period of three years. The related share-based compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2023 was less than $0.1 million (December 31, 2022 - $2.1 million), and is presented in selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of operations. The following table summarizes certain information in respect of option activity under the Company’s stock option plan:
(1)
The Original Awards are denominated in Canadian dollars. Exercise prices have been converted to U.S. dollar equivalents using an exchange rate of CAD$1.3226 to $1.00 as of December 31, 2023.
(2)
As of December 31, 2023, 7,877 of the stock options outstanding were exercisable (December 31, 2022—6,564).
During the year ended December 31, 2022, 7,877 Replacement Stock Options were granted with an exercise price of $0.05 per common share. No stock options were granted during the year ended December 31, 2023. No stock options were exercised during the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. The aggregate intrinsic value of outstanding options as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, was $Nil and $Nil, respectively. The Company used the Black-Scholes option pricing model to estimate the fair value of the options at the grant date using the following ranges of assumptions:
The expected volatility was estimated by using the historical volatility of the Company. The expected life in years represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding. In accordance with Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 14, the Company uses the simplified method for estimating the expected term. The Company believes the use of the simplified method is appropriate due to the employee stock options qualifying as “plain-vanilla” options under the criteria established by SAB Topic 14. The risk-free rate was based on the United States bond yield rate at the time of grant of the award. Expected annual rate of dividends is based on the fact that the Company has never paid cash dividends and does not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. (e) Restricted Stock Units On December 31, 2021, the Board approved a long-term incentive program, pursuant to which, on July 26, 2022, the Company issued certain employees of the Company and its subsidiaries, RSUs, under the Company’s Omnibus Incentive Plan. RSUs represent a right to receive a single common share that is both non-transferable and forfeitable until certain conditions are satisfied. The allocation of RSUs was contingent on the closing of the Recapitalization Transaction and was subject to approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange and the Board. On December 31, 2021 and June 23, 2022, the Board approved the allocation of 363,921 and 26,881 RSUs, respectively, to Board members, directors, officers, and key employees of the Company. The RSUs granted by the Company vest upon the satisfaction of both a service-based condition of three years and a liquidity condition, the latter of which was not satisfied until the closing of the Recapitalization Transaction. As the liquidity condition was not satisfied until the closing of the Recapitalization Transaction, in prior periods, the Company had not recorded any expense related to the grant of RSUs. Share-based compensation expense in relation to the RSUs is recognized using the graded vesting method, in which compensation costs for each vesting tranche is recognized ratably from the service inception date to the vesting date for that tranche. The fair value of the RSUs is determined using the Company’s closing stock price on the grant date. Certain RSU recipients were also holders of the Original Awards, which were cancelled upon closing the Recapitalization Transaction. The RSUs granted to these employees have been treated as replacement awards (the “Replacement RSUs”) and are accounted for as a modification to the Original Awards. As the fair value of the Original Awards was $Nil on the modification dates, the incremental compensation cost recognized is equal to the fair value of the Replacement RSUs on the modification date, which shall be recognized over the remaining requisite service period. On September 19, 2022, the Board awarded 27,108 RSUs to four Board members. Of the RSUs awarded, 7,843 were fully vested on issuance and 19,265 shall vest over a one-year period. The fair value of RSUs is determined on the grant date and is amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. On November 23, 2022, the Board awarded 7,317 RSUs to an officer of the Company, which shall vest over a three-year period. The fair value of RSUs is determined on the grant date and is amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. On December 8, 2022, the Board awarded 27,930 RSUs to Julius Kalcevich, a former officer of the Company, for compensation owed under section 4(g) of Mr. Kalcevich’s employment agreement (refer to Note 15). The fair value of the RSUs was determined on the grant date and the award was fully vested upon issuance. On December 23, 2022, the Board awarded 21,400 RSUs to key employees of the Company, which shall vest over a three-year period.

On August 31, 2023, the Board awarded 207,194 RSUs to two officers. The RSUs shall vest over a period of three years. The fair value of RSUs is determined on the grant date and is amortized over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. On October 20, 2023, the Board awarded 15,487 RSUs to Robert Galvin, a former officer of the Company, for compensation owed. The fair value of the RSUs was determined on the grant date and the award is expected to vest fully over three months.
