Note 7 – Warrants
 
Management has valued warrants at their date of issue utilizing the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model.  The risk-free interest rate is based on the implied yield available on U.S. Treasury issues with an equivalent term approximating the expected life of the warrants depending on the date of the issue and their expected life.  The expected life of warrants used was based on the term of the warrant.  The Company determined the expected dividend rate based on the assumption and expectation that earnings generated from operations are not expected to be adequate to allow for the payment of dividends in the near future.  The following weighted-average assumptions were utilized in the fair value calculations for warrants granted:
