Verastem Oncology awarded 380,500 restricted stock units to 24 new employees and options to buy 50,000 shares to one new employee. The company announced the grants on October 5 under Nasdaq’s inducement grant exception.

The options have an exercise price of $7.90, equal to Verastem’s closing share price on October 1, according to the company.

Both award types vest 25% on the employee’s one-year anniversary. The remaining shares vest in equal quarterly amounts over the next three years, provided the employee remains with Verastem or continues providing services on each vesting date.
