I think some of you are not understanding this form that was filed correctly. It is called "INITIAL STATEMENT OF BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF SECURITIES".
Because he was just named President and CEO this is a required filing to show exactly how many and in what way he owns shares or options.
This filing shows that he has a direct beneficial ownership of 993,300 shares. He has an indirect beneficial ownership in 550 shares that are oned by his son.
In addition, on 3/30/2006 he was granted an option to buy 750,000 shares at $ .145 which expires 3/30/2010 and on 7/1/2004 he was granted an option to buy 400,000 shares at a price of $ .23. None have been exercised so far.
This document says nothing about, nor has anything to do with where the company might feel the share price will be in July.
In fact, at the time the options were given, the hope would have been that the share price would have been much, much higher than it currently is. That is afterall, the purpose of stock options, to reward the owner of the options at a discount in the future for performance today.
