Tim,

< If someone owns a Jan 2002 option on MSFT and the company is broken up before the option expires what happens to the option? >

Very interesting question. I'm not sure how this would be done if MS is broken up. They may continue to keep them as MSFT options. They may assign the appropriate value to them based on the share values of the separate companies resulting from MS split.

Tim,

I think if MSFT is split to MSFA and MSFB, you will end up with 2 options, one on MSFA stock the other on MSFB
