"In exchange for serving on the Company’s Board of Directors, pursuant to a written agreement, Mr. Zelibor received an option to purchase up to one hundred thousand (100,000) thousand shares of restricted common stock of the Company at the strike price of $1.75 per share."
I like this very much. His options are priced at the current pps level and are for restricted shares. This is a package for someone who sees a positive future in LWLG and feels the stock will be going higher from here.
