The exercise price per share will be equal to the fair market value per share on the date the option is granted or on your first day of employment, whichever is later.

You are also representing and warranting to the company the accuracy of the contents of your resume. Any breach of this representation will result in the termination of your employment.
 
7.    Period of Employment. Your employment with the Company will be “at will,” meaning that either you or the Company will be entitled to terminate your employment at any time and for any reason, with or without cause. This is the full and complete agreement between you and the Company on this term. Although your job duties, title, compensation and benefits, as well as the Company’s personnel policies and procedures, may change from time to time, the “at will” nature of your employment may only be changed in an express written agreement signed by you and a duly authorized officer of the Company.
