The Company has granted to certain of its directors, employees and employees of its subsidiaries, restricted stock (鈥淩SAs鈥�), restricted stock units (鈥淩SUs鈥�) and options to purchase shares of the Company鈥檚 common stock (collectively, "Awards").

The Company has calculated the GDFV for all of its equity classified Awards and any subsequent remeasurement of its liability classified Awards using the Black-Scholes-Merton Model. The Company estimates the expected term of the Awards based on historical exercise and forfeiture data. The volatility used in the calculation for Awards is based on the historical volatility of 含羞草传媒's stock and the implied volatility of publicly traded 含羞草传媒 options. The Company uses a zero dividend rate and the risk-free rate for Treasury Bonds with a term similar to that of the subject options.
