The options were granted to management and key employees of MPC Capital in 2024 and are subject to market, performance and a service condition of four years. The remaining term of the options granted is derived from the contractual terms and the grant date of the options. The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual life of the option is based on zero-coupon bond risk-free rates generated using the Svensson model and yield curve data provided by the German Central Bank in effect at the time of grant. The grant-date fair value was $2.25 per option and was determined using the Black-Scholes model.
