Yup, I had one recently. The company had buyback rights at the strike price of the options that were equivalent to typical vesting terms. So, a 1 yr cliff, 4 year monthly vest. I.E. Any time in year 1 they had the right to buy them all back for exactly what I would have paid to exercise.
Yeah. I had one like that but have really never heard of it happening anywhere else.
May be this deserves to be a separate question on HN :)
