30% Rolling Stock Option PlanI received my circular recently. I see that directors are wanting approval for an option plan which would see the company potentially granting (gifting) 3 times more options than is typical of regular option plans (equivalent to an extra 30% of outstanding shares instead of the usual 10%). And it is a rolling plan, so as these are exercised, there is another 30% waiting in the wings, and another, and another... at least that's how I see it.
At current low share price, insiders could load up on discount shares--potentially resulting in significant dilution to minority retail shareholders.
They are seeking disinterested shareholder approval. Can anyone explain to me why this is not harmful to minority shareholders and why we should not vote against it?
