Guy,

Isn't there a fairly high probability that the option will be illiquid; and that the option holder may just call away your shares in order to cash out his position? Then the whole amount becomes taxable at the option holder's discretion.

Or am I missing something?

Is there a European style call one can sell to maintain control over the dates?

Ian.
