The options to purchase 30,000 shares in the table represent one quarter of the options to purchase 120,000 shares of common stock due for the year.
  • [F5]The options granted pursuant to the employment agreement have a term of five years and vest at the rate of 1/3rd of each option grant on the date of grant, 1/3rd of such option grant on the one year anniversary of the option grant and 1/3rd of such option grant on the two year anniversary of the option grant.
