OPTIONS AND WARRANTS TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK
NOTE 8 - OPTIONS AND WARRANTS TO PURCHASE COMMON STOCK

Derivative Instruments - Warrants
The Company issued 5,000,000 warrants (“Samlyn warrants”) in connection with the December 22, 2011 private placement of 10,000,000 shares of common stock.  The strike price of these warrants was $2.00 per share at the date of grant.  These warrants were not issued with the intent of effectively hedging any future cash flow, fair value of any asset, liability or any net investment in a foreign operation.  These warrants were issued with a down-round provision whereby the exercise price would be adjusted downward in the event that additional shares of the Company's common stock or securities exercisable, convertible or exchangeable for the Company's common stock were issued at a price less than the exercise price.  Therefore, the fair value of these warrants (based on observable inputs) was recorded as a liability in the balance sheet until they are exercised or expire or are otherwise extinguished.  As discussed in Note 7, during the first quarter of 2013, the Company issued 3,756,757 shares of its common stock for gross proceeds of $5,560,000, which triggered a down-round adjustment in the strike price of the Samlyn warrants of $0.03 from $2.00 to $1.97.

The proceeds from the private placement were allocated between the Common Shares and the Warrants issued in connection with the Private Placement based upon their estimated fair values as of the closing date at December 22, 2011, resulting in the aggregate amount of $6,420,000 to the Stockholders' Equity and $3,580,000 to the warrant derivative.  During 2012, the Company began using a binomial lattice model to value its warrant derivative liability.  Based on the value estimated using the lattice model, a reclassification was recorded as of January 1, 2012 to increase Stockholder's Equity by $780,000 and decrease the warrant derivative liability by the same amount representing the decrease in fair value of the warrant at date of issuance.  This adjustment was not considered by management to be material to the 2011 financial statements.  As the fair value of the liability declined during such periods, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2013, the Company recorded other income of $155,000 and $650,000, respectively, and during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, the Company recorded other income of $540,000 and $1,530,000, respectively.

Outstanding Stock Options
The fair value of each of the Company's stock option awards is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model that uses the assumptions noted in the table below.  Expected volatility is based on an average of historical volatility of the Company's common stock.  The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the stock option award is based on the yield curve of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury Bond on the date the award is granted with a maturity equal to the expected term of the award.

The significant assumptions relating to the valuation of the Company's options issued for the six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 were as follows:
