The Option Purchase Agreement is an agreement whereby a producer will enter into an agreement with an owner of material such as a screenplay, life rights, a book, etc., to have an exclusive period of time to decide to purchase the rights to such work.  If the producer elects to exercise the option and purchase the rights, the producer pays the owner the purchase price.  If the producer does not elect to exercise the option when the option is set to expire, the option lapses and all rights to the work remains with the owner.
