The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option award by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which model requires the use of exercise behavior data and the use of a number of assumptions including volatility of the Company’s stock price, the weighted average risk-free interest rate, and the weighted average expected life of the options. Because the Company does not pay dividends, the dividend rate variable in the Black-Scholes option-pricing model is zero. Expense of $255,227 and $94,707 related to stock options was recorded for the six-months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  As of June 30, 2014, the Company had various unvested outstanding options with related unrecognized expense of $306,555.  The Company will recognize this expense as these options vest over their remaining useful lives, which range from 5 to 59 months.
