Hi Michael-

I have been reading information on your web site about non- qualified stock options. Does a buying company typically reimburse employees for options not yet exercised, given there is a market value to them?

Thank you!
Diane

Hello Diane,

I have seen many cases where employees are compensated for their options relating to a purchase. I have also seen employee options converted to options for purchasing company stock. If you are working on an acquisition, you should get legal advice about these issues.

Best wishes,
