The Black-Scholes model requires the use of subjective assumptions including expectations of future dividends
and stock price volatility. Such assumptions are only used for making the required fair value estimate and should not
be considered as indicators of future dividend policy or stock price appreciation. Because changes in the subjective
assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, and because employee stock options have characteristics
significantly different from those of traded options, the use of the Black-Scholes option pricing model may not
provide a reliable estimate of the fair value of employee stock options.
