measurements. The expected stock price volatility is based on a mix of the historical and implied volatilities of the Company and certain peer group companies. The expected dividend yield is based on the Company’s average historical dividend yield and the dividend yield as of the valuation date for each award. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury note yields matching a three-year time period.
