Rudedog, I don't believe that is correct. When an employee is granted an option, the fair market value is taxable as ordinary income. This applies whether you sell the option or not. Assuming you decide to hold it, any subsequent rise in value is taxable at capital gains rates. Therefore I see no tax incentive to replacing the option with shares of stock.

I may be wrong but I doubt it. <g>
