Maximum Price that Call Two can have = Price of Call One + Difference between the Strike Prices = 7 + (100-95) = 7+5 = $12
If the Price of Call Two is more than $12, lets say, $13. In that case, there is an Arbitrage Opportunity as follows:
We can Sell the Call with $95 Strike and Buy the Call with $100 Strike. In that position, maximum loss will occur, if Stock Price is more than $100.
Maximum Loss will be = Difference between Strike Price + Net Premium Received = (Option Sold-Option Bought)+(Premium Received on Selling-Premium Paid on Buying) = (95-100)+(13-7) = -5+6 = Profit of $1
Therefore, if Price of Call Two is more than $12, there will NO LOSS in any situation. There will be an Arbitrage Profit.
