Stock options do expire. The expiration period varies from plan to plan. Track your options exercise periods and expiration dates very closely because once your options expire, they are worthless. There are often special rules for terminated and retired employees, and employees who have died. These life events may accelerate the expiration. Check your plan rules for details about expiration dates.
