| Stock-Based Compensation |
(14)Stock-Based Compensation 听 Liberty - Incentive Plans 听 Pursuant to the jvid视频 2013 Incentive Plan (amended and restated as of March 31, 2015) (the "2013 Plan"), the Company may grant Awards to purchase shares of Series A, Series B and Series C jvid视频 common stock. The 2013 Plan provides for Awards to be made in respect of a maximum of 98.7 million shares of jvid视频 common stock. Awards generally vest over 4-5 years and have a term of 7-10 years. Liberty issues new shares upon exercise of equity awards. The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an Award of equity instruments (such as stock options and restricted stock) based on the grant-date fair value (鈥淕DFV鈥) of the Award, and recognizes that cost over the period during which the employee is required to provide service (usually the vesting period of the Award). 听 Pursuant to the jvid视频 2013 Nonemployee Director Incentive Plan (Amended and Restated as of December 17, 2015) (the "2013 NDIP"), the Liberty board of directors has the full power and authority to grant eligible nonemployee directors stock options, stock appreciation rights (鈥淪ARs鈥), stock options with tandem SARs, and restricted stock. In connection with the Recapitalization, all outstanding Awards with respect to jvid视频 common stock (鈥淟iberty Awards鈥) were adjusted pursuant to the anti-dilution provisions of the incentive plans under which the equity awards were granted, such that a holder of a Liberty Award received new corresponding equity awards relating to shares of one or more series of Liberty SiriusXM common stock, Liberty Braves common stock and Liberty Formula One common stock (collectively, the 鈥淎djusted Liberty Awards鈥). The exercise prices and number of shares subject to the Adjusted Liberty Awards were determined based on 1) the exercise prices and number of shares subject to the Liberty Award, 2) the distribution ratios, 3) the pre-Recapitalization trading price of jvid视频 common stock and 4) the post-Recapitalization trading prices of Liberty SiriusXM common stock, Liberty Braves common stock and Liberty Formula One common stock, such that all of the pre-Recapitalization value of the Liberty Awards was allocated among the Adjusted Liberty Awards. 听 On July 23, 2014 a dividend of Series C jvid视频 common stock was distributed and adjustments to the Awards outstanding were required to reflect the changes to the capital structure of the Company. For every Series A Award held, two Series C Awards were issued with an exercise price equal to one third the exercise price of the outstanding Award. Additionally, the exercise price of the outstanding Series A Awards was adjusted to one third the exercise price associated with such Award. The change to outstanding Awards did not change the aggregate intrinsic value associated with the Awards outstanding just prior to the distribution and immediately following the distribution. 听 In connection with the Broadband Spin-Off during 2014, the holder of an outstanding Award to purchase shares of Series A, Series B, and Series C jvid视频 common stock (an 鈥淟MC Award鈥) received an Award to purchase shares of the corresponding series of Liberty Broadband common stock and an adjustment to the exercise price and number of shares subject to the original LMC Award.听听Following the Broadband Spin-Off, employees of Liberty hold Awards in both Liberty common stock and Liberty Broadband common stock.听听The compensation expense relating to employees of Liberty is recorded at Liberty and included in the Company鈥檚 consolidated financial statements. 听 Liberty - Grants of stock options 听 Awards granted in 2016, 听2015 and 2014 pursuant to the 2013 Plan and the 2013 NDIP discussed above are summarized as follows: 听 听
听 During the year ended December 31, 2016, in connection with our CEO鈥檚 employment agreement, Liberty granted approximately 775 thousand options of Series C jvid视频 common stock and 39 thousand performance-based restricted stock units of Series C jvid视频 common stock. Such options and restricted stock units had a weighted average GDFV of $8.91 per share and $37.76 per share, respectively, at the time they were granted. The majority of these options vested on December 31, 2016, and the performance-based restricted stock units cliff vest in one year, subject to satisfaction of certain performance objectives. Performance objectives, which are subjective, are considered in determining the timing and amount of the compensation expense recognized. As the satisfaction of the performance objectives becomes probable, the Company records compensation expense. The value of the grant is remeasured at each reporting period. 听 Also during the year ended December 31, 2016, Liberty granted 10 thousand, 101 thousand, 415 thousand and 41 thousand options to purchase shares of Series C jvid视频 common stock, Liberty Formula One common stock, Liberty SiriusXM common stock and Liberty Braves common stock, respectively. Such options had a weighted average GDFV of $8.33, 听$4.89, 听$7.50 and $3.79 per share, respectively, and mainly vest 50% each on December 31, 2019 and 2020.听 听 During the year ended听December 31, 2015, the Company granted a total of approximately 2.5 million options to purchase shares of Series C jvid视频 common stock. A portion of the options granted was comprised of 676 thousand options with a weighted average GDFV of $10.86 per share that vest annually over 3 years and 1.3 million options with a weighted average GDFV of $15.52 per share that vest 50% each on December 31, 2019 and 2020.听 听 In connection with our CEO鈥檚 employment agreement, Liberty also granted 420 thousand performance-based options of Series C jvid视频 common stock and 34 thousand performance-based restricted stock units of Series C jvid视频 common stock during 2015. Such options and restricted stock units had a weighted average GDFV of $12.15 per share and $38.20 per share, respectively. The performance-based options and performance-based restricted stock units cliff vested in March 2016, upon satisfaction of certain performance objectives. 听 During the year ended December 31, 2014, Liberty granted 3.3 million options to purchase shares of Series C jvid视频 common stock to the CEO of Liberty in connection with his employment agreement (see note 13); of those options, one half vest on December 24, 2018 and the other half vest on December 24, 2019. The remainder of the options granted typically vest quarterly over a 4 year vesting period. 听 The Company has calculated the GDFV for all of its equity classified awards using the Black-Scholes Model. The Company estimates the expected term of the Awards based on historical exercise and forfeiture data.听听For grants made in 2016, 听2015 and 2014, the range of expected terms was 4.6 to 6.7 years. The volatility used in the calculation for Awards is based on the historical volatility of Liberty's stocks and the implied volatility of publicly traded Liberty 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. 听 The following table presents the volatilities used by the Company in the Black-Scholes Model for the 2016, 听2015 and 2014 grants. 听 听
