[1] The majority of 2014 stock option awards were granted prior to the spin-off. As such, the weighted average assumptions and fair values reflect pre-spin information, including dividends, stock prices and grants to Rayonier Advanced Materials employees in addition to Rayonier employees.
[2] The fair value per share of each option grant was adjusted at the spin-off to preserve the aggregate value of the original Rayonier stock option. The adjusted weighted average fair value per share applied to Rayonier employee awards was $8.23 for 2014 grants, $10.70 for 2013 grants and $9.04 for 2012 grants.
