RVXoldtimer - I do agree with your point of view to a point. The $700k to a $1 million you talk about is for DM only along with the highest RSU award. What I was trying to highlight was that the next highest award was to the head scientist which is really the person we are betting on, understanding that the science would be nowhere without her team and the money to develop it.

IMO US$50 per share is a very achievable buyout price if they pass this trial with one or more of the secondary indications showing reasonable results. That number is in the middle of my Medium - Low, Medium and High valuations. So as much as I agree that the awards would be best given after success, the optics would be horrendous if they awarded C$90 million in bonuses within a couple of weeks or months after announcing trial success.

As far as companies in general awarding stock options and RSU's, RVX in comparison to many have been very respectful to their shareholders in general as far as awards go. Many companies go to the maximum 10% of outstanding shares immediately. We are no where close to that. 

After 19 years of whacking their heads against a wall bringing this new technology to the world, if we have success, they deserve the bonuses they will get. The shareholders that have stayed the course for all those years do as well but unfortunately there is only so many seats at the party.
