Option is not giving you cash or stock. It give you an option to buy at a
certain price for a certain share of stocks.
For example the board granted you 20000$ worth of option. The price is
market close price on Nov 1st. You can exercise those options after one year
. Suppose the price on Nov 1st is 50$/share , then you will be eligible to
buy 400 shares at 50$/share after one year.
If after one year the price is 60$ and you exercise it , you need to pay the
capital gain tax for the 4000$.
If after one year the price is 40$ you will do nothing. Later if the firm
goes bankrupcy you lose nothing.
The idea for granting option is to make the employees working harder because
if the price drops they will get nothing.

This seems much clearer. So, if one year later the employee does not
exercises it and wants to excises it two years later,will the option expire?

policy will be changed with the firm mature.

So, what does the following statement imply? Does it mean that we can
exercise four years later? Or, the initial 25% must be excised in the first
year?
The Company has a four (4) year vesting schedule where 25% of the shares
vest after one year of employment and the remainder vest in 36 successive
equal monthly installments upon the completion of each additional month of
employment with the Company.

It means after first year each year you can exercise 25%. If you jump to
another company you lost the remainder.
