Just go recap…
Hark back to late summer, when the BOD relinquished any cash payment? Usual thing under such circumstances is to accept payment in shares, thus fully aligning BOD interests with those of ALL shareholders. But no, they were each issued a ‘bond’, as negotiated by Anavio, treated just like all their other bonds. So, after being issued to our BOD at a 4p conversion price, they’ve been included within renegotiation and now carry a conversion price of 0.15p! I can find nothing within deal sheets to even suggest that they are treated any differently. Now that’s clearly an incentive package fully in line with Anavio’s game plan, not that of ALL shareholders.
Worse still, they deemed it an internal deal, so signed of their own Anavio aligned remuneration as being unworthy of a shareholder vote!! Got to be careful what I say here, but at the very best that is shockingly inept governance. At worst, it could be clear collaborative fraud.
I’ll spell it out. Under Canadian law, the incentive package they signed off for themselves is deemed illegal. The board didn’t volunteer to take an Anavio bond, it was an inducement from Anavio to deliver what they required.
Report it to the Alberta Securities Commission, or cry into your NY beer.
