Woohoo!!! DOW crashed, next week will be great opportunity to get into the BIG rocket below the CEO's share option price. Of course, the lower the better. To Shortists Inc, need you guys to do your job. All the recent fund buyers (Jap or whereever) are all true-blue investors, no hope for them to sell to us retail players at cheap price. We need you guys, do not disappoint us again!!! Just make sure you bring along extra set of tay kors. hee hee Just realized, the warrant strike price is 0.86 and CEO share option is 0.855. VERY interesting contrast in positions. |

I concurred with sharejunkie. To me, i see the share option for the Ang Mo is positive as the option exercise price given to him is as of the current market price(no premium discount given). Thus, he is not having any direct $ gains if he exercise the option now. Compared to some other company, the share option given to some new heavyweight director normally comes with option with a discounted excercise price(10% to 15% discount), thus the newly join director will have direct gains once he joins the board. (If he exercise the option he will immeiately has direct gains) So, given the vast experience the Ang Mo had in M&A and etc .... if he can accepts the share option at this current pricing ... this shows that he should be confident that BIG will move in a BIG way in times to come. If not, then he will be earning nothing ......... only if the share move up to 3 bucks ....... or the more the merrier, he will be then earning 10 over millions ....... Conclusion: AngMo sure had done his maths and confident that he can make/move/mould BIG to another formittable player in the industry and the share price to another high level ..... then he laughs all the way to the bank ..... Lastly, to the Ang Mo CEO out there: " Hello, please work harder leh ..... counting on you liao " Ha Ha Ha ........ Cheers to all the BIG believers ..... Looking forward to the next/last quarter result closing for this FY. Above not an inducement to trade. |

Equally no company gives out shares on a "promise or potential" to deliver... like I say unless RMK is a superstar, and even then there is no promise... usually there will be some key performance indicators or some assured bonus, but then it is after a certain period, not one month surely.... Unless there is some certainty that RMK has or is going to deliver, it is very very hard to justify this to shareholders. |

Shortists reason for yourselves. Jobbers too. So don't block the sell price. otherwise you may have to buy very much higher than what you would sell.. hehehe. |

hmm... good sense. Usually only confirmed staff or those with at least 1 year service are entitled to participate in executive share option scheme (esop). RMK is not so stupid to see his career at risk with the new owner without making a pile for himself while at the same time see LYC and CKL run laughing to the bank. So takeover in the short term is highly probable if not iminent. |

my guess is that the new CEO's renumeration isn't fantastic considering his experience and BIG is not YET an "earnings" company. therefore this share option must have been part of the deal to attract him. of course, the CEO must have done his homework and realized he is in for a windfall. :) |

If we look at the new CEO's track records, he is more or less a M&A talent. If the board thinks that with him sticking around, beside running the company and the group well, there is a good likelihood that his expertise would bring about a fair and equitable takeover offer from any interested party, it would be wise to give him a reasonable option to exercise in the event that he clinches a good deal that even his shares can make him a tidy sum. On this premise why not let him take a conditional reward this way? I think it is a right incentive to give. |

Usually companies give share option to executives who have performed as a bonus. It is therefore rather strange that BIG should give a new CEO share options...WHY???? What has he done???? What has he delivered that the co sees fit to give him bonus... can't be a sign on bonus unless he is a superstar CEO? Maybe he has or will be delivering something big for BIG..... otherwise who anyhow give share option... as a shareholder we should query right...??,,,, |

It is good that the CEO granted share options at current market prices of 85.5cts. So if the CEO don't work hard to make this company better and make BIG's share price chiong, he also "eat grass" and get paid his basic salary only. BIG is dangling the carrot in front of the CEO so he can do his magic to this company. Some companies grant their senior management with share options at exercise price below the current market price so it becomes a "bao chiak" option to them. I would be disappointed if BIG grant the share option at below current market price but it is not the case here. |

err.. XiaoMaGe, share option doesn't mean the CEO already bought the shares. i think he only pay $1 first and can choose to exercise the right to buy 6m shares at USD0.61 within 10 years. anyway, share options are certainly not a negative thing. many world class companies like KepCorp give out plenty more share options to their senior management. world class company of course need world class compensation & benefits. BIG is certainly on the right track :- mix one CEO with experience in medical device company takeover deals + plenty of share options = BLAST OFF!!! |
