Sounds like a move to feed from the 'golden trough" of stock incentives for the top big-wigs.
Maybe, just maybe, these moves are the result of dissatisfaction with the current cEO AND IS A CHALLENGE TO THE NEW GUYS TO GENERATE BUSINESS AND GET THINGS ON THE RIGHT PATH.
I'm hoping it the beginning of a shake-up at the company that will move the share price higher OR result in the sale of the company
