@MBW. My understanding is that options aren't typically exercised unless the recipient intends to sell the shares they receive, or they need the shares for their voting rights, or they are about to expire. If the BoD did exercise the options now it would send a bad signal to the market IMHO, as no matter how sure they are the deal is going to close and our share price is going to rocket, they would be fools to exercise until it actually has and the share price responds accordingly. Even then, I doubt they'll exercise straight away. Why would they? Share options are very valuable, and you don't exercise them unless you need to.
Just my humble opinion. Perhaps I'm missing something?
