Options are derivative contracts. There are two kinds of options, calls and puts.
In the case of ERJ, the call option is the relevant contract.
A call option gives the owner a right to buy the underlying asset (ERJ stock) at a specified exercise price ($0.20) on or before a specified expiration date (31 December 2016).
Put simply ERJ will give you a financial asset (like a share) which gives you the right to buy ERJs shares at $0.20 any time before the expiration date. So say if the stock is $1 next december, the option gives you the right to buy the stock at $0.20 of the company and then you can then sell that stock on the market making a risk free gain of $0.80.
