"Pay the taxes when you get the benefit. If they're not vested, then you don't have them."

What is the basis on which one would calculate the taxes? The FMV at the time they are the vested or the grant date?

"Companies could perhaps include some cash at the same time the options were granted"

But that would also be taxable income now, would it not?
