<<option to buy one share of QCOM with a two day vesting period, and I further grant you the option at the below market price of zero dollars>>

wouldn't that be a stock grant as opposed to a stock option?

Yes. and when the employee excercises the grant, its treated as ordinary income for the employee. The employee either fronts up with cash for the tax, or adjusts the money received from the grants excercised to deduct tax at source.

cheers, kumar@beenthere,donethat.pov
