Some of 2 or 3 may involve accommodation of tax liability as well, I believe exercise and hold enforces an immediate liability under AMT with a recalculation of basis, but I'm not sure.

There are plenty of investors who note that while these three choices are available with both warrants and options, management consistently takes the least bullish strategy. Hopefully management isn't a role-model for warrant holders.
