work for said company.

Options are a promise of a share at a set price given to staff to aid loyalty

These will usually be available to you over a period of time at a set price.

so you only profit if you stay with the company and the company goes up in value.

 

Eg as part of our annual review at previous company we were eligible to options.

 

we might be given 1000 options that vest over a 4 year period, so we had access to 250 per year. (some might be a single issue at a set date others might be over 10 years depends on time and offer.

say the issue price was 30 dollars.

in 12 months we could access 250 options at 30$

if the share price was 40$ now this was a great thing. I got 2500$

if the share price tanked and was at 20$ it was not worth excising the options and if they get to the expiry date prior to getting back over 30$ then they were worthless to us.

 

we had people who were issued options at the top of the dot com boom at 200$ plus.

 

1 year later the share price was 8$  lets just say they were never exercised.

How does one acquire said options?

 

88EO is the stock code for the current options

They can be traded just like shares, or converted into shares if you pay the 2 cents per share or whatever it is to convert

Options end in March, so steer clear.

CPH and MXC are doing well overall IMO. I don't have much invested, but good time to get in or top up I think. I also got the run in on BYE but not sure if it will go much higher, had a successful drill that goes into production in 2 months I think.

So if no one exercises their options at 2c, fair to say they ain't finding shit down the hole..

Being offered at .007 doesn't seem too promising

Few reasons people wouldn't exercise their options:

- they can't afford to. Many people spend all the investment money they can on options to maximize their leverage, so that if the company ever does take off massively they just borrow money or pour more cash in to exercise them and end up better than if they'd bought heads. Borrowing money if the company hasn't taken off yet is not very wise.

- they don't have faith in the company to come through with goods

- they haven't spent that much on options and already have heads anyway

- they forget about the expiry date

- they trade options just like shares with no intention of ever exercising them

You can still get gardening leave if you resign and are currently working on cases, depending how your firm approaches that...wouldn't be difficult to sell information to opposite counsel

don;t you just get told not come back and paid out?

Any-one with customer account info here doesn't make it back to their desk to work after a resignation letter.

 

safer that way.

 

no idea what our current non compete contracts are.

I've legacyed in from years back with a support role.

well...

 

some-one has agreed to buy a bunch of shares at 2 cents when they are trading at 2.8 cents if the people running the business don't want to purchase them..

so think to yourself why people running the business would not want to buy shares in their own company at 30% under market value.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
