STOCK OPTIONS

Stock options are mostly offered to management as part of their executive compensation package. They are also offered to lower-level managers and employees, especially by businesses that are not yet profitable. They can also be offered to non-employees: suppliers, consultants, lawyers and promoters, and to members of the company's board of directors for services rendered.
