Re: Cashing in my options
Employee incentive options are not exchange traded. They are usually not vested when granted, but vest over a period of 4 or 5 years. They are incentive to continue working at the company and build value for the company. When you leave, you forfeit the unvested options but you are usually given a few months to exercise the vested ones. They really have no time premium that you can monetize. You can't sell them, you can only exercise them.
