Stock-Based Compensation
Vested stock options granted before June 30, 2004 can be exercised up to three months following
termination of employment. Vested stock options granted after June 30, 2004 and before January 1, 2007 can be
exercised up to one year following termination of employment. For newly granted options, beginning in January
2007, employee stock options will remain exercisable for the full ten year contractual term regardless of
employment status. In conjunction with this change, the Company changed its method of calculating the fair
value of new stock-based compensation awards granted under its stock option plans from a Black-Scholes model
to a lattice-binomial model. The Company believes that the lattice-binomial model is more capable of
incorporating the features of the Company’s employee stock options than closed-form models such as the Black-
Scholes model. The lattice-binomial model has been applied prospectively to options granted in 2007. The
following table summarizes the assumptions used to value option grants using a lattice-binomial model:
