Jobsの27.5 million のオプションを 5 millionに減らしたとある。
多分その代わりに執行価格を引き下げたんだろうね。
だから上のmacworldsfさんの$65というのはこの時点で無効になったんじゃないかな?
Apple’s Board of Directors also approved two measures to reduce the Company’s issued stock options as a percentage of total options and shares outstanding from the current level of 23 percent to 16 percent. The first measure is a voluntary employee stock option exchange program which allows the Company’s employees who are not executive officers and hold options with exercise prices at or above $25.00 to exchange them for a lesser number of new stock options priced at fair market value six months and one day after their existing options are cancelled. The second measure is for Apple CEO Steve Jobs to voluntarily exchange his 27.5 million stock options for a new grant of 5 million restricted shares that will vest on the third anniversary of the grant. Together these measures are expected to return a net total of over 32 million options back to the Company, which represent almost 7 percent of the total options and shares currently outstanding.
(1) Shares are subject to a vesting schedule. The shares are scheduled to vest on 03/19/2006, assuming continued employment with the Company until that date.

Maybe they're buying their own stock, making some profit & driving it up (ask Rubinstein & co.).

Q. What happens if I buy or sell shares after the Record Date and before the
Split Date?
A. If you sell shares prior to the Record Date (February 18, 2005), you will be selling
them at the pre-split price. If you sell shares after the Record Date (February 18,
2005) but prior to the Split Date (February 25, 2005) you will be selling them at the
pre-split price and the shares will trade with a “due bill” (i.e., the shares you trade are
“due” an equal number of shares issuable in the stock split). When you sell your
shares, you surrender your pre-split shares and any shares due. The due bill is
transferred to the new owner of the shares.
If you buy shares after the Record Date but before the Split Date, you will purchase
the shares at the pre-split price and will receive a due bill. Following the split, you
will receive (or your brokerage account will be credited with) an equal number of
shares as a result of the stock split.
