STOCK BASED COMPENSATION

NOTE 8 – STOCK BASED COMPENSATION


The Company uses the Black-Scholes option pricing model to calculate the grant-date fair value of an award, with the following assumptions for 2014 and 2013: no dividend yield in both years, expected volatility, based on the Company's historical volatility, 70.25% to 109% in 2014 and between 107% to 113% in 2013, risk-free interest rate between 0.58% to 2.08% in 2014 and between 0.94% to 1.86% in 2013 and expected option life of 2.13 to 7.25 years in 2014 and 3 to 10 years in 2013.


As of December 31, 2014, there was $324,004 of unrecognized compensation expense related to non-vested market-based share awards that is expected to be recognized through May 2017.


The following tables summarize all stock option and warrant activity of the Company during the year ended December 31, 2014 and 2013:
