We use the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the fair value of our awards on the date of grant. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing formula that uses the assumptions noted in the table and discussion that follows:

Expected volatilities are based on the historical volatility of the Company’s Common Stock.  The expected term of the options granted represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding.  The Company uses historical data to estimate option exercise and employee termination within the valuation model.  The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of the grant.

 

The Company incurs stock-based compensation expense over the requisite service period.  We have estimated forfeitures and incur expense on shares we expect to vest.   

 

As of March 31, 2012, there was $57,268 of unrecognized compensation cost related to share-based compensation arrangements that we expect to vest. This cost will be fully incurred within 5 years.  The options exercisable as of March 31, 2012 have no intrinsic value.
