Valuation and Expense Information:

The weighted-average fair value of stock-based compensation is based on the Black Scholes Merton valuation model.

Forfeitures are estimated and it is assumed no dividends will be declared. The estimated fair value of stock-based compensation awards to employees is amortized over the vesting period of the options. The fair value calculations are based on the following assumptions:

The following table summarizes the allocation of stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013. During 2014, the Company granted 4,500 options at a weighted average grant date fair value of $0.02 per share. There were no stock options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013.

As of December 31, 2014, there was $236 of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested share-based compensation arrangements. The unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.0 years.

The cash flows from tax benefits for deductions in excess of the compensation costs recognized for share-based payment awards would be classified as financing cash flows. Due to the Company's loss position, there were no such tax benefits during the year ended December 31, 2014.

The summary activity for the Company's 2009 and 2011 Stock Compensation Plans, the 1999 Option Plan and Individual Plans is as follows:
