This webcast is a panel discussion that will share some of the alternatives available to companies in this situation, and will cover option re-pricings, option exchanges, additional grants, retention bonuses, cash-settled grants, employee education campaigns, ESPPs, as well as the merits of doing nothing.

Susan Garvin of SOS said, “There are so many companies still grappling with how to handle their underwater options, many of whom have been doing so for a long time.  This panel should help start conversations in those companies, and give them different solutions to consider that will allow their long term incentive programs to once again achieve their underlying purpose.”
