Directors compensation

Directors compensationHi  I would like to comment on compensation and let you judge on the value of compensation,

I think all directors have been allocated 1.5 million options at a price of 0.05c for 5 years.

That is good because directors if i understand right still has to be a director to exercise the options.

The value of that 1.5m options at 0.05 c in 5 years is
If the stock price is still at 0.05c the value is zero. (the only compensation to directors would be the expenses and small $ paid to participate to board meeting.

If the stock price is in 5 years at
1.5m shares at 0.10c  = $150k - $75k =    $75k   gain at exercise date ($15k per year)
1.5m shares at 0.15c  = $225k - $75k =  $150k   gain at exercise date ($30k per year)  
1.5m shares at 0.20c  = $300k - $75k =  $225k   gain at exercise date ($45k per year)
And that is only when the maximum option plan was 14.5m shares.

$15-$45k in profit per year if the price of Abcourt shares is raised from 0.04c to 0.20c in 5 years.
 
Now the maximum options share allowed has been upgraded from 14.5m to 42,810,000 shares.
So if directors vote themself options to a maximum of 42.8m shares at 0.05c  their profit could be multiplied by 4. 
If you devide the profit at exercice in 5 years  the profit of 8 board directors could be over $8m.

Yes this the extreme but it shows that directions could manipulate to keep the share price low for a few years and grant themself options at 5c .

On the other side I have faith in Mr Hamelin to do everything to increase the price in the next year and then issue options to board members at a much higher price.

I might have errors in calculations due to having consumed a bottle of vine.
