I was glad to see more transparency in how the Officers will be compensated. It also makes me feel more comfortable to know that they have disclosed this ESOP set up during 2016 which awards them share options that are held by a trustee and vest after a period of two years. Why is this important to me? Because now it is transparent and clear that the top management will receive a lot of shares as described below and this is a serious driver and motivator for this management team to make serious strides forward and the better they do the higher the stock price will go and directly affect their payoff. It also motivates them to get the company and stock to a point where they can uplist. These kind of incentive programs are often used in companies to motivate the management team to perform and meet progress deadlines and goals.
The most important part to me is this:
(3) Under the Company’s 2016 ESOP, 10 million options were granted to Mr. Bignitz, 750,000 options were granted to Mr. De-Saban, and 7 million options were granted to Dr. Baruch and Mr. Sinai during 2016. Subject to the provisions of applicable Israeli laws, these options are held by a trustee and vest after a period of two years and, as a result, are not included in the above table.
