Polarbear - these large option awards began long before May 2017.
Here is a post of my suspicions in the summer and fall of 2016.
Note that these awards were made one month earlier than the normal quarterly schedule and just two days before the announcement of the MTA to Biogen.

Why did Dr. Missling get 500,000 options awarded in Sept. in addition to all of the others ?
I believe it is because the BOD who has all of the solid information of what is occurring behind the scenes that no one else has at this time except maybe Biogen.
Here is an earlier post of mine that gives me peace of mind.

HINTS! We are all aware of Dr. Missling's series of 1000 share buys prior to 2015 CTAD. Here is a listing of Anavex's SEC 8K filings that has served as more than just hints to me.
7/5/2013 - Dr. Missling's first contact for three years
7/5/16 - First amendment to his contract to extend employment for three
years. This provided a large salary raise and many options to be
vested over the three year period.
7/7/16 - Clarification of options plus an addition of the following
"UPON A CHANGE OF CONTROL ALL PREVIOUSLY GRANTED BUT UNVESTED
OPTIONS SHALL VEST"
7/22/16 - Further clarifications of options.
Here is the listing of the quantity and dates of options granted to the granted to the BOD on FORM 4s
-------------- 7/16/16 -------- 9/22/16
Bernd --------50,000---------100,000
Favus -------- 1,500-------- 100,000
Skarpelos --- 50,000---------100,000
Missling---------------------500,000 (In addition to contract options)
Boenisch---------------------106,696
Thomas----------------------100,000
9/28/16 MTA to Biogen filed with the SEC.
????? QUIET PERIOD ?????
I have a feeling that the BOD has all of the information they need and I'll rely on that.
