An option's exercise price will normally be set at a level equal or above the current share pricee.
Options would rarely get exercised if the share price never exceeded the option price! The company would normally be aiming to get it's share price above the exercise price so it can either reap the exercise cash, or so the holders (often directors and execs) can get a benefit from their options.
Ultimately the share price will have little relationship to the exercise price of the option, though, once the issue of the options is done and dusted. Witness Bannermans 6.67c options, with the shares now at $3.35 or so!
Thx Brujo...
