He may have had to exercise them prior to expiry because of the limited window, but he did not have to sell the shares.


True, but he probably needed to sell a good portion
just to pay the taxes. If you're going to have to sell
anyway, why not take the opportunity to diversify a little
bit? It's not as if he doesn't still have a whole lot of
options/shares left.

But I agree. If he had sold only enough to pay the taxes,
it would have been a very good sign for the stock.
However given the circumstances, I don't find the
sale to be alarming.
