The fair value of stock option grants and compensation-based warrants is estimated on the date of grant or issuance using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.  Options to purchase 27,736,692 shares of common stock were issued in the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 3,700,000 in the three months ended March 31, 2014. The weighted average fair value of stock options issued during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 as $0.015 and $.014, respectively.   The weighted-average assumptions used for the stock options granted and compensation-based warrants issued during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 were risk-free interest rate of 1.75% and 1.75%, volatility of 113% and 130%, expected life of 5 years, and dividend yield of zero. The expected life of stock options represents the period of time that the stock options granted are expected to be outstanding prior to exercise. The expected volatility is based on the historical price volatility of the Company’s common stock. The risk-free interest rate represents the U.S. Treasury constant maturities rate for the expected life of the related stock options. The dividend yield represents anticipated cash dividends to be paid over the expected life of the stock options. The intrinsic values are based on a March 31, 2015 closing price of $0.015 per share.

 

Share-based compensation from all sources recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2015 and 2014 was approximately $87,000 and $44,000, respectively, and is reported as general and administrative expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.  As of March 31, 2015, there is approximately $201,252 of unrecognized compensation cost related to stock-based payments that will be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 6.36 years.
