PRESBIA PLC
DIRECTORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016
The directors present their report and audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2016.
The directors have elected to prepare the consolidated financial statements of Presbia PLC in accordance with Section 279 of the Companies Act 2014, which provides that a true and fair view of the state of affairs and profit or loss may be given by preparing the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), as defined in Section 279 of the Companies Act 2014, to the extent that the use of those principles in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements does not contravene any provision of the Companies Acts or any regulation made thereunder.
As required by Section 225 of the Companies Act 2014 of Ireland, the directors acknowledge that they are responsible for securing the Company’s compliance with its “relevant obligations” (as defined in that legislation). The directors further confirm that a compliance policy statement has been drawn up, and that appropriate arrangements and structures have been put in place that are, in the directors’ opinion, designed to secure material compliance with the relevant obligations. A review of those arrangements and structures has been conducted in the financial year to which this report relates.
Basis of Preparation
The accompanying financial statements reflect the operations of Presbia PLC and its subsidiaries (unless otherwise stated, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Presbia” or the “Company” refers to Presbia PLC) and have been prepared in United States dollars (“USD”) and in accordance with US GAAP.
Principal Activities
Presbia PLC (the “Company”), an Irish public limited company, was formed on 6 February 2014 and is engaged in the development and commercialization of a variety of advanced ophthalmic products, including intracorneal lenses, together with surgical tools, devices and methods.
As at 31 December 2016, the wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company were Presbia Investments Limited, Presbia Ireland Limited, Presbia USA Inc., Visitome Inc., PresbiBio LLC, OPL LLC, PIP Holdings C.V., PresbiOptical LLC and Presbia Cooperatief U.A.
OVERVIEW
The Company is an ophthalmic device trading company, incorporated in Ireland, which funds the development and marketing of a proprietary optical lens implant for treating presbyopia, theage-related loss of the ability to focus on near objects. The microlens is a miniature lens designed to be surgically implanted in a patient’s eye to improve that patient’s ability to see objects at close distances. The current strategy is to continue to commercialise the microlens in certain strategic countries where the Company has marketing approval and to continue to seek to obtain marketing approval in other key markets, including the United States.
The Company’s goal is to become a leading provider of corneal inlay presbyopia-correcting treatment worldwide. Presbia PLC is a development stage ophthalmic device company with a limited operating history. To date it is not a profitable company and has incurred losses since its formation having an accumulated deficit of $71.3 million. The Company is currently funded by funds raised in its initial public offering in 2015. In March 2017, the Company closed a rights offering, pursuant to which it raised approximately $10.8 million in gross proceeds through the sale of 3,611,764 of its ordinary shares at a subscription price of $3.00 per whole share. Based on our current business plan,

PRESBIA PLC
DIRECTORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016
we believe that our cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2016, coupled with net proceeds from our “rights offering” of $10.5 million and with anticipated revenues outside of the United States will be sufficient to satisfy our anticipated cash requirements, including capital expenditures, working capital requirements, long term debt and other liquidity requirements through at least the next twelve months.
EMPLOYEES
As at 31 December 2016, we had 40 employees, one of whom holds a Bachelor of Optometry degree, and nine of whom hold other advanced degrees. Of our total workforce, nine employees are engaged in research and development, and 31 employees are engaged in business development, manufacturing, finance, legal, human resources, facilities, information technology administration and general management. We have no collective bargaining agreements with our employees and we have not experienced any work stoppages. We believe that our relations with our employees are good.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINITIES
The medical device industry in general, and the ophthalmic medical device market in particular, are highly competitive. In order to succeed in this market as a development stage company, the Company must:
| • | | incur substantial expenditures to obtain regulatory approvals necessary to commence marketing our products in particular jurisdictions; |
| • | | develop a commercialization strategy that is responsive both to the needs of laser centers and ophthalmic surgeons and to our own requirements and limitations; and |
| • | | invest in our future by continuing to advance our technology and improve our microlens, our microlens inserter and other auxiliary products; |
The competitive nature of the market, the high degree of government regulation, the importance of technological innovation and the significance that most people place on near vision combine to elevate the risks facing any development stage company seeking to enter our market.
RESULTS FOR THE YEAR AND STATE OF AFFAIRS AS AT 31 DECEMBER 2016
The consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive loss for the year ended 31 December 2016 and the consolidated balance sheet at that date are set out on pages10-11. Loss for the year amounted to $15.8 million (2015: $18.2 million). The company’s loss for the year amounted to $24.5 million (2015: $4.2 million).
GOING CONCERN
The net loss of $15.8 million for the year ended 31 December 2016 is the result of the operating expenses for the year. Management expects that existing cash as of 31 December 2016 of $7.3 million, coupled with net proceeds from our “rights offering” of $10.5 million and with anticipated revenues outside of the United States, will be sufficient to fund the Group’s operations through 30 June 2018.
The directors are satisfied based on their enquiries with management and the review of the future projections of the Group that existing cash and ongoing shareholder support will provide financial support to the Company for a period of at least twelve months from the date of signing the financial statements, and have therefore prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTORS’ RESPONSIBILITIES
The directors are responsible for preparing the directors’ report and the consolidated financial statements in accordance with applicable Irish law and US GAAP including the accounting standards issued by the Financial Reporting Council and published by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in Ireland.
Irish company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law, the directors have elected to prepare the consolidated financial statements in accordance with Companies Act 2014 and US GAAP. Under company law, the directors must not approve the consolidated financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities and financial position of the Company as at the financial year end date and of the profit or loss of the Company for that financial year and otherwise comply with the Companies Act 2014.
In preparing these consolidated financial statements, the directors are required to:
| • | | select suitable accounting policies for the consolidated financial statements and then apply them consistently; |
| • | | make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; |
| • | | state whether the financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards , identify those standards, and note the effect and the reasons for any material departure from those standards; and |
| • | | prepare the consolidated financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue in business. |
The directors are responsible for ensuring that the Company keeps or causes to be kept adequate accounting records which correctly explain and record the transactions of the Company, enable at any time the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit and loss of the Company to be determined with reasonable accuracy, enable them to ensure that the financial statements and the directors’ report comply with the Companies Act 2014 and enable the financial statements to be audited.
The directors are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Presbia PLC
We have audited the consolidated and parent company financial statements of Presbia PLC (the “financial statements”) for the year ended 31 December 2016 which are set out on pages 10 to 34. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is the Companies Act 2014, as defined in Section 293 and 294, and US generally accepted accounting principles (“US GAAP”), to the extent that that use of those principles in the preparation of the financial statements does not contravene any provision of the Companies Act 2014 or any of the regulations thereunder.
This report is made solely to the Company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Section 391 of the Companies Act 2014. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
Respective responsibilities of directors and auditor
As explained more fully in the statement of directors’ responsibilities set out on page 7, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view and otherwise comply with the Companies Act 2014. Our responsibility is to audit and express an opinion on the financial statements in accordance with Irish law and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board’s (APB’s) Ethical Standards for Auditors.
Scope of the audit of the financial statements
An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of: whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the company’s circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed; the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors; and the overall presentation of the financial statements. In addition, we read all the financial andnon-financial information in the Director Report to identify material inconsistencies with the audited financial statements and to identify any information that is apparently materially incorrect based on, or materially inconsistent with, the knowledge acquired by us in the course of performing the audit. If we become aware of any apparent material misstatements or inconsistencies we consider the implications for our report.
Opinion on financial statements
In our opinion the financial statements:
| • | | give a true and fair view, in accordance with US GAAP, to the extent that the use of those principles in the preparation of the financial statements does not contravene any provision of the Companies Act 2014 or of any regulations made thereunder, of the state of the group’s and the parent company’s affairs as at 31 December 2016 and of the group’s loss for the year then ended; |
| • | | have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2014. |

PRESBIA PLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016
Presbia PLC is a company incorporated in Ireland. The address of the registered office is given on page 2. The nature of the Group’s operations and principal activity are set out on page 3.
The significant accounting policies adopted by the Group are as follows:
Basis of Presentation
The directors have elected to prepare the financial statements of Presbia PLC in accordance with Section 279 of the Companies Act 2014, which provides that a true and fair view of the state of affairs and profit or loss may be given by preparing the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP), to the extent that the use of those principles in the preparation of the financial statements does not contravene any provision of the Companies Acts or any regulation made thereunder.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in United States dollars and reflect the operations of Presbia PLC (“we”, “us”, “Presbia PLC” or the “Group”).
Basis of Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been derived from the historical cost basis of the assets and liabilities, financial condition and cash flows of Presbia PLC, Presbia Ireland, Limited, organized in Ireland, Presbia Investments organized in the Cayman Islands and Presbia USA, Inc., and OPL, LLC. Presbia USA, Inc. and OPL, LLC are both entities organized in the United States, and include Presbia USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries, Visitome, Inc. and PresbiBio, LLC, both organized in the United States, and OPL, LLC’s direct and indirect subsidiaries, PIP Holdings, C.V and Presbia Cooperatief U.A., both organized in the Netherlands, and PresbiOptical LLC, organized in the United States (collectively, including Presbia PLC, the “Company”). The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Company’s fiscal year ends on 31 December. The entities presented in the consolidated financial statements have been under common control during the periods presented. All intercompany accounts have been eliminated in consolidation. All amounts are shown in U.S. dollars.
Foreign Currency
The functional currency of the Group is the U.S. Dollar. Transactions in foreign currencies during the year arere-measured at rates of exchange on the dates of the transactions. Gains and losses related tore-measurement of items arising through operating activities are accounted for in the statement of comprehensive income and included in general and administrative expense. The aggregate foreign exchange gain for the year ended 31 December 2016 was $869 and the aggregate foreign exchange loss for the year ended 31 December 2015 was $6,209.

PRESBIA PLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016
Taxation
For the years ended 31 December 2016 and 2015, the Company was generally not subject to income taxes, as income or loss was either passed-through and included in the income tax returns of the Company’s shareholders or otherwise not subject to tax under local statute or rulings. Provisions for federal, foreign, state, and local income taxes are calculated onpre-tax income based on current tax law and include the cumulative effect of any changes in tax rates from those used previously in determining deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and the income tax basis of assets and liabilities. A valuation allowance is recorded to reduce net deferred income tax assets to amounts that are more likely than not to be realized.
Financial Instruments
Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised on the Group’s Balance Sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Cash
Cash includes cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks.
Investments in Subsidiaries
Investments in subsidiaries are stated at cost less, where appropriate, provisions for impairment.
Research and Development
Research and development expenses consist of the expenses incurred to develop products, to pursue patent and trademark protection, to respond to technological challenges, to conduct clinical trials, surgical training and education activities, post-market evaluation studies and to pursue governmental approvals. They are expensed through the statement of comprehensive income as they are incurred with the exception of capital expenditures that would have alternative uses. Research and development expenses consist primarily of employee salaries and related benefits, equipment costs related to the clinical trials and outside services.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation of property and equipment is computed using the straight-line method over their estimated useful lives of three to ten years. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the useful life of the asset or the remaining term of the lease. Repairs and maintenance of property and equipment are expensed as incurred. Upon retirement or sale, the original cost and accumulated depreciation are removed and any gain or loss is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016
Intangible Assets
We review the recoverability of long-lived and finite-lived intangible assets when circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets might not be recoverable. This evaluation compares the carrying value of the long-lived asset to the undiscounted cash flow projections associated with an asset or group of assets. In the event undiscounted cash flow projections indicate impairment, we would record an impairment loss on the statements of operations and comprehensive loss in the period in which the impairment occurred and adjust the carrying value of the asset or group of assets to its fair value.
Financial Assets
Financial assets are classified into the following specified categories: financial assets “at fair value through profit or loss” (FVTPL), and ‘loans and receivables’. The classification depends on the nature and purpose of the financial assets and is determined at the time of initial recognition. All purchases or sales of financial assets are recognized and derecognized on a trade date basis. Purchases or sales are purchases or sales of financial assets that require delivery of assets within the time frame established by regulation or convention in the marketplace.
Effective interest method
The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortized cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees and points paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or, where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition.
Income is recognized on an effective interest basis for debt instruments other than those financial assets classified as at FVTPL.
Loans and receivables
Loans and receivables arenon-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments that are not quoted in an active market. Loans and receivables (including trade and other receivables, bank balances and cash, etc.) are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment. Interest income is recognised by applying the effective interest rate, except for short-term receivables when the recognition of interest would be immaterial.
Borrowing Costs
Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalization.
All other borrowing costs are recognized in the statement of comprehensive income in the period in which they are incurred.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016
Segment Information
In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, we identify operating segments as components or elements of an enterprise about which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision-maker in making decisions regarding resource allocation and assessing performance. To date, the Group has viewed its operations and manages its business as one segment.
Stock Based Compensation
The Company records share-based compensation in the statements of operations as expense, based on the estimated grant date fair value of our share-based awards, whereby such fair values are amortized to expense over the requisite service period. Our share-based awards are currently comprised of common stock options and restricted awards granted under our various plans. The fair value of our common stock options is generally estimated on the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton, or BSM, option-pricing formula.
Additionally, on 28 April 2016 the executive committee of the board of directors approved the issuance of 682,500 restricted stock units (“RSU’s”) to certain officers, employees andnon-employees of the Group with 20% vesting increments and a contractual expiration period of seven years. The vesting increments of 20% each are dependent upon the performance of the Company’s ordinary share price by exceeding or being equal to the established share price thresholds of $10, $15, $20, $25 and $30, for a period of 20 consecutive trading days, respectively. The fair value of our RSUs is estimated using the Monte Carlo methodology assuming the Group’s historical stock performance, and the projected impact of known variables and future market performance.
Revenue
We recognize revenue when there is persuasive evidence that an arrangement exists with our customers, selling prices are fixed or determinable, title or risk of loss has passed, and collection is reasonably assured. Revenue is recognized upon shipment and payments are either received in advance, or net 30 days for lenses or net 14 days for accessories. Distributor arrangements include certain perfunctory acceptance provisions and aone-year warranty, from the date of shipment, that products are free from defects in material workmanship. Under such provisions customers may reject shipments via written notifications ranging from14-45 days or exchange defective product under warranty for the samenon-defective product. We have not had any significant rejected shipments or warranty claims. We do not grant price concessions to our distributors.
Going Concern
As discussed in the director’s report, management expects that existing cash as of 31 December 2016 of $7.3 million, coupled with net proceeds from our “rights offering” of $10.5 million and with anticipated revenues outside of the United States, will be sufficient to fund the Group’s operations through 30 June 2018.
The directors are satisfied based on their enquiries with management and the review of the future projections of the Group that existing cash and ongoing shareholder support will provide financial support to the Company for a period of at least twelve months from the date of signing the financial statements, and have therefore prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.

3. | CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATE UNCERTAINTY |
In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, the directors are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these amounts. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty and critical accounting judgements are as follows:
Going concern
The directors are satisfied based on their enquiries with management of the Group and the review of the future projections of the Group that the parent company will be able to continue to provide financial support to the Company for a period of at least twelve months from the date of signing the financial statements, and have therefore prepared the financial statements on a going concern basis.
4. | IMPAIRMENT OF LONG-LIVED ASSETS |
We review the recoverability of long-lived and finite-lived intangible assets when circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets might not be recoverable. This evaluation compares the carrying value of the long-lived asset to the undiscounted cash flow projections associated with an asset or group of assets. In the event undiscounted cash flow projections indicate impairment, we would record an impairment loss on the statements of operations in the period in which the impairment occurred and adjust the carrying value of the asset or group of assets to its fair value.
5. | ADOPTION OF RECENTLY ISSED US GAAP STANDARDS |
At the date of authorisation of these financial statements, the following US GAAP Standards and Interpretations which have not been applied in these financial statements were in issue but not yet effective, all such standards allow for early application:
Accounting Standards Update (ASU)No. 2014-09,Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), effective for accounting periods beginning in the first quarter of 2018;
ASUNo. 2015-17,Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, effective for accounting periods beginning after December 15, 2016;
ASUNo. 2016-02,Leases (Topic 842), effective for accounting periods beginning in the first quarter of 2019;
ASUNo. 2016-09,Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting (Topic 718), effective for accounting periods beginning in the first quarter of 2017;
ASUNo. 2016-15,Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), effective for accounting periods beginning after December 15, 2017;
The directors are currently assessing the impact in relation to the adoption of these Standards and Interpretations for future years of the Company; however, at this point they do not believe they will have a significant impact on the financial statements of the Company in future years.

PRESBIA PLC
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016
The valuation allowance has been established to offset the Group’s net deferred tax assets, as realization of such assets is not considered to be more likely than not due to the Group’s history of losses and uncertainties regarding the Group’s ability to generate future taxable income sufficient to realize the benefit of these deferred tax assets.
The Group has U.S. Federal net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards of approximately $2,105,000 and $1,618,000 for 31 December 2016 and 2015, respectively, subject to potential limitations pursuant to Internal Revenue Code section 382 as discussed below. The federal NOL carryforwards will begin to expire in 2033, unless previously utilized. The Group has NOL carry forwards in Ireland of $30.0 million and $20.2 million for 31 December 2015 and 2014, respectively, which can be carried forward indefinitely.
Pursuant to Section 382 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), annual use of the Group’s NOL carry forwards may be limited in the event a cumulative change in ownership of 50% of certain shareholders occurs within a three-year period. An ownership change may limit the amount of NOL carry forwards that can be utilized annually to offset future taxable income and tax. In general, an “ownership change” as defined by Section 382 of the Code results from a transaction or series of transactions over a three-year period resulting in an ownership change of more than 50 percentage points of the outstanding stock of a company by certain shareholders.
Presbia Coopratief U.A. is a Dutch Company that has received an advance ruling with the Tax and Customs Administration that is in effect from 1 January 2012 to 31 December 2015.
As at 31 December 2016 and 2015, the Group did not have any unrecognized tax benefits. The Group does not anticipate a significant increase in the unrecognized tax benefits over the next 12 months. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest expense and penalties related to income tax matters as a component of the income tax provision. As at 31 December 2016 and 2015, the Group did not have any tax related accrued interest and penalties on its balance sheet or on its statement of operations.
Due to net operating loss carryovers, the U.S. federal and state returns are open to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state jurisdictions for years 2008 through 2015. The foreign income tax returns are open to examination for the years 2012 through 2016.

On August 2, 2016, Presbia Ireland, Limited, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an asset purchase agreement (the “Agreement”) with Neoptics AG (“Neoptics”) pursuant to which the Company acquired certain assets from Neoptics for an aggregate purchase price of 1.5 million Swiss Francs (approximately $1.5 million based on the exchange rate between the Swiss Franc and the US Dollar on August 2, 2016) payable in three equal installments on each of August 2, 2016, December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2018. The assets acquired include patents, pending patents, and other immaterial assets. Effective August 2, 2016, the Company became responsible for all expenses associated with such assets. Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, the acquisition closed on August 2, 2016.
Substantially all of the fair value of the gross assets acquired is concentrated in the acquired intellectual property rights or patents and not in the trademarks, documents or electronic data obtained from the Seller. The Company determined the intellectual property right or patents were akin to inputs within the scope of ASC 805 “Business Combinations” and that no substantive processes were acquired in the assets acquisition. Therefore, the Company applied the asset acquisition accounting guidance in ASC805-50-30 “Initial Measurement of Acquisition of Assets Rather than a Business.”
The Company paid $0.6 million in cash in exchange for these patents and patent applications in the year ended December 31, 2016. The useful life of the patents was determined to be 12 years and 4 months and will be amortized through November 25, 2028. The Company recorded amortization expense of approximately $52,000 with net carrying amount of approximately $1,477,000 as of December 31, 2016. The annual future amortization is approximately $124,000 through 2028. As part of this transaction, we established a note payable of $859,000.
Costs incurred to develop software for the Company’s website are capitalized and amortized over the estimated useful life of the software and are included in intangible assets. Costs related to design or maintenance of website development is expensed as incurred. For the years ended 31 December 2016 and 2015, the Company capitalized nil associated with website development. Amortization expense of $15,000 and $14,000 was recorded in 2016 and 2015, respectively.

Employee Options
The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes valuation model for estimating the fair value of share-based compensation representing 0 and 1,032,500 options granted to employees andnon-employee directors during the years ended 31 December 2016 and 2015, respectively, with the following assumptions:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended 31 December 2016 | | | Year Ended 31 December 2015 | |
Stock price per share | | $ | — | | | $ | 4.39 - $10.00 | |
Term | | | — | | | | 5.5 - 6.5 Yrs. | |
Volatility | | | — | | | | 69.8% - 84.6% | |
Dividends | | | — | | | | — | |
Risk-free rate | | | — | | | | 1.3% - 2.0% | |
The stock price per share is the range of closing stock prices for the Company’s ordinary shares associated with the award grant dates. The term is the expected term of the option utilizing the simplified method because of the Company’s limited history of option exercise activity and its options meeting the criteria of the “plain vanilla” options as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Also, due to its limited stock price volatility history, the Company uses a peer group average under ASC 718 consistent with the expected term of the option in effect at the time of the grant. The risk- free rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield consistent with the expected term of the option at the time of the grant.
The weighted average grant date fair value of the employee options granted during 2016 and 2015 was $ 0 and $6.74 per share, respectively. For those options granted to employees, stock-based compensation expense is based upon the fair value of the option as of the grant-date and attributed to future reporting periods on a straight-line basis over the vesting period, or the requisite service period. A forfeiture rate is applied to reduce the amount of expense recognized each period, anticipating that a portion of all options will, more likely than not, be cancelled prior to the dates of its vesting periods. During 2015 and for the three months ended 31 March 2016, a 5% forfeiture rate assumption was applied. Based upon review ofpre-vesting forfeitures, commencing with the second quarter of 2016, the forfeiture rate was reduced to 3%. The forfeiture rate is subject to review and may be adjusted based upon experience.
Non-Employee Options
The Company utilizes the Black-Scholes valuation model for estimating the fair value of share-based compensation representing 0 and 78,000 options granted tonon-employees and consultants during 2016 and 2015, respectively, with the following assumptions:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Year Ended 31 December 2016 | | | Year Ended 31 December 2015 | |
Stock price per share | | $ | 2.50 - $3.49 | | | $ | 5.26 | |
Expected term | | | 8.2 - 9.3 Yrs. | | | | 9.2 - 9.9 Yrs. | |
Volatility | | | 66.1% - 92.6% | | | | 75.8% - 78.8% | |
Dividends | | | — | | | | — | |

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2016
In contrast to the determination of the value of options granted to employees andnon-employee directors, which are determined based upon the grant-date assumptions and applying the Black-Scholes model, the fair value fornon-employee options and the related stock-based compensation expense are remeasured each financial reporting period based upon the assumptions applicable on the dates in which the financial statements are prepared. Because the performance criteria of these grants is based solely upon a requisite service period, and are subject to forfeiture if the service conditions are not met, stock-based compensation expense is determined by a straight-line attribution of the remeasured expense(mark-to-market) over the requisite service period subject to a forfeiture rate of 3%. As described in the preceding section, the annualized forfeiture rate was reduced from 5% to 3%.
Restricted Shares
Consistent with the Company’s director compensation policy, the Company’s board of directors approved the grant of 65,450 restricted ordinary shares of the Company during the year ended 31 December 2016, with a grant date weighted average fair value of $3.50, a five- year vesting period consisting of 20% on each annual anniversary date commencingone-year following the date of grant.
The following table sets forth the Company’s restricted share activity for the year ended 31 December 2016:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Unvested Number of Shares | | | Weighted Average Fair Value per Share | |
Balance, December 31, 2015 | | | 20,289 | | | $ | — | |
Granted | | | 65,450 | | | $ | 3.50 | |
Vested | | | (4,057 | ) | | $ | 3.50 | |

Unvested, December 31, 2016 | | | 81,682 | | | $ | — | |
Restricted Stock Units
During the year ended 31 December 2016, the Board of Directors approved the award of 787,500 restricted stock units (“RSU” or “RSU’s” or “RSU Plan”), respectively, to officers and employees in accordance with the guidelines provided by the Presbia Incentive Plan, which includes a provision that the recipient must be employed as a condition of vesting. The Presbia RSU Plan authorizes the issuance of 20% of each recipient’s total RSU award for the first occurrence that the closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares exceed, for a period of 20 consecutive business days, price thresholds of $10.00, $15.00, $ 20.00, $25.00 and $30.00, respectively. The RSU Plan also provides for aone-year “wait” or service period prior to any vesting permitted under the plan. The RSU Plan has a seven-year expiration period following the date of the grant.
Fair value of the RSU’s awarded were determined using a MCS methodology, which considers the separate probabilities that each of the price thresholds or market conditions will be achieved under the RSU Plan guidelines. Each probability is weighted by its respective price threshold, or its intrinsic value, which provides the basis for an aggregate fair value. The Company used the following key inputs in determining the fair value using the MCS model: (i) the volatility of the entity’s common stock and (ii) the closing price of the entity’s stock as of the measurement date of the RSU award. In accordance with GAAP, the Company recognizes as stock-based compensation expense, using a straight-line attribution method, the aggregate fair value over future periods based upon the respective derived service periods and fair values for each of the price thresholds as provided by the MCS model. A 3% forfeiture rate was applied to account for future cancellations and forfeitures. During the year ended December 31, 2016, approximately $467,000 was recorded as stock-based compensation related to the RSU Plan. No such expense was recognized in the same period in 2015.
