Reload Feature

Definition: A reload feature automatically grants additional stock options whenever an option holder exercises previously granted options using an entity's shares to satisfy the exercise price. Under international financial reporting standards, if a stock option contains a reload feature, do not include it in the estimate of the fair value of options granted. Instead, account for it as a new option grant.
