<edited>Hi jb - actually, IMHO, Sarun's excuse is the only plausible one. With his background, he probably doesn't need to worry about his future, the conditions [moving and long hrs] are iffy to a 46 yr old individual who doesn't need to worry about his livelihood. Incidentally, the following article has a bit morsel worth reading

Despite Sarun and Horowitz getting the spotlight, I think losing Rosenberg is the biggest loss

<edited> to be clear, neither Sarun nor Horowitz are leaving the company.

best, Bosco

<< Why would Sarun leave a company he thought was going places? >>

Because his options are priced something like 500% higher than today's prices. INSP could do spectacularly over the next five years and never get above the strike price of the bulk of his options.

A large part of his financial incentive (the mass of options he got when he joined INSP) is not going to be recognized any time soon.

He will go to another company and get a large batch of options priced at today's level.
