Lattice option-pricing models incorporate ranges of assumptions for inputs and those ranges are disclosed in the table below. The risk-free interest rate for periods within the contractual life of the stock option is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant. Expected volatilities are based on implied volatilities from traded stock options on the Corporation&#x2019;s common stock, historical volatility of the Corporation&#x2019;s common stock, and other factors. The Corporation uses historical data to estimate stock option exercise and employee termination within the model. The expected term of stock options granted is derived from the output of the model and represents the period of time that stock options granted are expected to be outstanding. The estimates of fair value from these models are theoretical values for stock options and changes in the assumptions used in the models could result in materially different fair value estimates. The actual value of the stock options will depend on the market value of the Corporation&#x2019;s common stock when the stock options are exercised. No stock options were granted in 2009.</font></p> <p style="MARGIN-TOP: 0px; MARGIN-BOTTOM: 0px; FONT-SIZE: 12px"> &#xA0;</p> <p style="BORDER-BOTTOM: #b23040 2pt solid; LINE-HEIGHT: 1px; MARGIN-TOP: 0px;
