RE:RE:Re: compensation
Also depends on the strike price of the options and the term to expiry.
Another consideration:
What are the people receiving the options earning in terms of salary and other benefits? If the other components of their compensation are typical or below what others in their respective positions earn at other companies of similar size, then the options could be viewed as reasonable. However, if they are earning above-average compensation in these other areas, awarding them such generous quantities of options at an attractive strike price with a long term to expiry would have (other) shareholder dilution written all over it.
