(1) The expected annual volatility for each grant is determined based on the average of historical daily price changes of the Company’s common stock over a period which approximates the expected option term.
(2) The expected option term for each grant is determined based on the historical exercise behavior of employees and post-vesting employment termination behavior.
(3) The risk-free interest rate is based on the yield of U.S. Treasury securities with a maturity that is commensurate with the expected option term at the time of grant.
(4) The expected annual dividend yield is based on the weighted-average of the dividend yield assumptions used for options granted during the applicable period.
