NSO Clause Samples

An NSO, or Non-Statutory Stock Option, clause defines the terms under which a company grants stock options to employees or other service providers that do not qualify for special tax treatment under the Internal Revenue Code. This clause typically outlines eligibility, vesting schedules, exercise price, and the process for exercising the options. Unlike Incentive Stock Options (ISOs), NSOs may be granted to non-employees and are subject to ordinary income tax upon exercise. The core function of the NSO clause is to provide a flexible equity compensation tool for companies to incentivize and retain talent, while clearly specifying the tax and administrative implications for recipients.
