(A) |
The strike prices are subject to adjustment in connection with return of capital dividends and spin-offs. A portion of Newcastles 2008 dividends was deemed return of capital dividends. The effect on the strike prices was not significant. The strike prices were adjusted for the New Residential spin-off as described above. As of December 31, 2013, the weighted average strike price of the outstanding options issued prior to 2011 was $12.66. |
|
(B) |
The fair value of the options was estimated using an option valuation model. Since the Newcastle Option Plan and 2012 Plan have characteristics significantly different from those of traded options, and since the assumptions used in such model, particularly the volatility assumption, are subject to significant judgment and variability, the actual value of the options could vary materially from managements estimate. The volatility assumption for these options was estimated based primarily on the historical volatility of Newcastles common stock and managements expectations regarding future volatility. The expected life assumption for options issued prior to 2011 was estimated based on the simplified term method. This simplified method was used because Newcastle did not have sufficient historical data to conclude on the appropriate expected life of its options and because historical data to date was consistent with the simplified term method. The expected life assumption for options issued in 2011 and thereafter was estimated based primarily on the historical expected life of applicable previously issued options. |
