The Company does not have a written employee stock option plan.  The Company has historically granted only employee stock options with an exercise price equal to the market price of the Company’s stock at the date of grant, a contractual term of ten years, and a vesting period of three years ratably on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant (with limited exceptions).

 

All employee stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 were nonqualified stock options.   Stock-based compensation is measured at the grant date, based on the calculated fair value of the option, and is recognized as an expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite employee service period (generally the vesting period of the grant).

 

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, 2,790,348 options were issued and the fair values are estimated at the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  Stock-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2013 was $23,759 and $45,880, respectively.  Stock-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2012 was $842 and $2,434, respectively.

 

The Black-Scholes option pricing model was used with the following weighted-average assumptions for options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2013:

 

Risk-free interest rate 0.72%– 1.66%

Expected option life 5 years

Expected volatility 186% - 243%

Expected dividend yield 0%
