Good point. Nevertheless his willingness to hang on does count for something with me. Plenty of other insiders won't even bother to show such a small gesture like that.

Take fgen CEO for example. He regularly exercises and dumps his options. Well since I hold a big stake in fgen , I rationalize it as follows : as long as he regularly sells his options and keeps his total stake of around 2.8M sh constant, then even though I don't prefer it but I could live with it.

If and when he whittles down his total stake in a serious manner, I will bail instantly. To me, actions always speak louder than words.

The far bigger cost is the fed and state tax bills of nearly $200K and it is notable that he didn't sell any to offset the taxes owed upon exercise.
