(4)听听听Stock-Based Compensation

The Company has granted to certain of its directors, employees and employees of its subsidiaries stock appreciation rights ("SARs"), restricted stock grants and options to purchase shares of Liberty common stock (collectively, "Awards"). The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity classified Award (such as stock options and restricted stock) based on the grant-date fair value 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). The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for a liability classified Award (such as SARs that will be settled in cash) based on the current fair value of the Award, and remeasures the fair value of the Award at each reporting date.

In connection with the TripAdvisor Holdings Spin-Off in August 2014, all outstanding Awards with respect to Liberty Ventures common stock (鈥淟iberty Ventures Award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 Ventures Award received:

The exercise prices and number of shares subject to the adjusted Liberty Ventures Award and the TripAdvisor Holdings Award were determined based on 1) the exercise prices and number of shares subject to the Liberty Ventures Award, 2) the pre-distribution trading price of Liberty Ventures common stock and 3) the post-distribution trading prices of Liberty Ventures common stock and TripAdvisor Holdings common stock, such that all of the pre-distribution intrinsic value of the Liberty Ventures Award was allocated between the adjusted Liberty Ventures Award and the TripAdvisor Holdings Award.

Following the TripAdvisor Holdings Spin-Off, employees of Liberty hold Awards in both Liberty Ventures common stock and TripAdvisor Holdings common stock.听听The compensation expense relating to employees of Liberty is recorded at Liberty.

During the nine months ended September听30,听2014, Liberty granted, primarily to QVC employees, 1.8 million options to purchase shares of Series听A Liberty Interactive common stock.听听Such options had a weighted average grant-date fair value of $12.05 per share and vest semi-annually over the 4听year vesting period.

The Company has calculated the grant-date fair value for all of its equity classified Awards and any subsequent remeasurement of its liability classified Awards using the Black-Scholes Model. The Company estimates the expected term of the Awards based on historical exercise and forfeiture data. The volatility used in the calculation for Awards is based on the historical volatility of Liberty's stock 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.

There was no activity during the period for the outstanding Liberty Interactive or Liberty Ventures Series B awards.

As of September听30, 2014, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested Liberty outstanding equity Awards was approximately $89 million, including compensation associated with the option exchange that occurred in December 2012. Such amount will be recognized in the Company's consolidated statements of operations over a weighted average period of approximately 2.3 years.

Other

Certain of the Company's other subsidiaries have stock based compensation plans under which employees and non-employees are granted options or similar stock based awards. Awards made under these plans vest and become exercisable over various terms. The awards and compensation recorded, if any, under these plans is not significant to Liberty.
