RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:News release questions:I have a question about the news release options that was given to Critical Mass.
The NR stated the following:
"The Company has also retained additional sales and marketing professionals and has issued them a total of 150,000 options. These options have a strike price of $0.33 and vest over a period of two years subject to continued affiliation with the Company. "
These are call options that give the right to sell 100 shares per option once/if the stock hits 33cents. The good news is this means they are extremely confident that the stock will go to at LEAST 33 cents. However, the bad news is exercising these contracts will trigger selling. 150,000 contracts x 100 shares/option contract = 15 million shares for 33 cents. Will this not add a lot of drag to the share price.
It's vested over 3 years, but is this not a form of diluting stocks by paying with these options? please clarify if I'm understanding it wrong.
Thanks
