Stock Options Fair Value Assumptions, Method Used

The Company records compensation expense for stock options based on the estimated fair value of the options on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes valuation model.  The Company uses historical data among other factors to estimate the expected price volatility, the expected term and the expected forfeiture rate of the option.  The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date of grant for the expected term of the option.
