Note 7 - Stock-Based Compensation As of June 30, 2013, the Company maintained the Shore Bancshares, Inc. 2006 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (“2006 Equity Plan”) under which it may issue shares of common stock or grant other equity-based awards. Stock-based awards granted to date generally are time-based, vest in equal installments on each anniversary of the grant date over a three- to five-year period of time, and, in the case of stock options, expire 10 years from the grant date. Stock-based compensation expense is recognized ratably over the requisite service period for all awards, is based on the grant-date fair value and reflects forfeitures as they occur. The following tables provide information on stock-based compensation expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012.

The Company estimates the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes valuation model with weighted average assumptions for dividend yield, expected volatility, risk-free interest rate and expected contract life (in years). The expected dividend yield is calculated by dividing the total expected annual dividend payout by the average stock price. The expected volatility is based on historical volatility of the underlying securities. The risk-free interest rate is based on the Federal Reserve Bank’s constant maturities daily interest rate in effect at grant date. The expected contract life of the options represents the period of time that the Company expects the awards to be outstanding based on historical experience with similar awards. The following weighted average assumptions were used as inputs to the Black-Scholes valuation model for options outstanding at June 30, 2013.
Dividend yield |  | 0.60 | %
Expected volatility |  | 58.65 | %
Risk-free interest rate |  | 1.69 | %
Expected contract life (in years) |  | 5.83 |
At the end of the second quarter of 2013, the aggregate intrinsic value of the options outstanding under the 2006 Equity Plan was $39 thousand based on the $7.36 market value per share of Shore Bancshares, Inc.’s common stock at June 30, 2013. Since there were no options exercised during the first six months of 2013 or 2012, there was no intrinsic value associated with stock options exercised and no cash received on exercise of options. At June 30, 2013, the weighted average remaining contract life of options outstanding was 8.7 years.
