Option Grants Clause Samples
The Option Grants clause defines the terms under which options to purchase company shares are awarded to individuals, typically employees, consultants, or directors. It outlines key details such as the number of options granted, the exercise price, vesting schedule, and any conditions that must be met before the options can be exercised. This clause ensures that both the company and the recipient have a clear understanding of the rights and obligations associated with the options, thereby providing a structured incentive mechanism and reducing potential disputes over equity compensation.
