Expected holding period is based on historical experience of similar awards, giving consideration to the contractual terms of the stock-based awards, vesting schedules and the expectations of future employee behavior.
 
(2)
Weighted average volatility is based on the historical volatility of our common stock.
 
(3)
Estimated forfeiture rates are based on historical data.
