The variance of distressed companies will be much higher than the industry average that has been suggested here to be used. Dont you think we should be using the historical average of variance in similar distressed companies ? After all that variance or volatility is what is providing value to our equity.

My problem with this is that the derivation of black scholes is based on replication portfolios and 0 arbitrage. Can you really apply Black Scholes here if you can't "replicate" this pay off naturally?
