SycamoreFan Posted June 22, 2012 Share Posted June 22, 2012 A stock option agreement provides for a NQSO with an exercise price of 100% of grant date fair market value of the underlying stock; however, the stock option agreement also provides for a bonus equal to the exercise price for each share exercised, which is payable upon exercise. Am I missing something, or is this bonus contingent upon exercise a reduction in the exercise price such that the option loses its "stock right" exemption from 409A? Seems straight forward to me, but I'm wondering if anyone sees a different analysis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
