Italian term or phrase: acquisizione di opzioni
this is relating to a contract for the purchase of art work.

In particolare la Fondazione per l’Arte si farà carico di:

-concordare con la controparte le condizioni della compravendita, "mediante acquisizione di opzioni" o offerte irrevocabili di cessione;

the purchase of the options doesn't make sense to me.

Thanks in advance for any help

Explanation:
I can positively confirm that "acquisition of options" would be the best translation.
Legally speaking there is actually such thing as an Option Contract, so effectively there would be no other real way of putting it.
