RJ.....I agree. For now, PacWest is functioning as his marketing arm and surrogate FASC executive in charge of marketing. As new sales come on board, his options will increase and give him an opportunity to add another exec to the company to help himself, Kelly and Adam.
This is in lieu of the Cyclone approach, whereby they would increase share count to fund new executives.
There are no exclusive right or wrongs here, but on balance....... with the thought that new sales ARE on the way, it makes good business sense to pursue the first strategy.
