The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes optionpricing model. The following weighted-average assumptions were used for grants under the MC Group Stock Option Plan in 1996 and 1995, respectively, dividend yield of 0.0%; expected volatility of 50.9% and 45.6%; nsk-free interest rate of 6.52% and 5 37%, and expected life of 4 years The following weighted-average assumptions were used for grants under the Cigar Stock Option Plan m 1996. dividend yield of 0 0%, expected volatility of 90%; nsk-free interest rate of 6.13%; and expected life of 5 years
The Black-Scholes option valuation model was developed for use in estimating the fair value of traded options which have no vestmg restnctions and are fully transferable. In addition, option valuation models require the input of highly subjective assumptions including the expected stock pnce volatility. Because the Company's employee stock options have charactenstics significantly different from those of traded options, and because changes in the subjective input assumptions can materially affect the fair value estimate, in management's opinion, the existing models do not necessarily provide a reliable single measure of the fair value of its employee stock options
The Chief Executive Officer of the Company has been granted the right to receive a special payment of up to $5 5 million which is deferred and is dependent upon the overall performance of the Company's Common Stock At December 31, 1996, the Company has accrued the earned and vested portion of the special payment nght.
