It's a complicated situation and I'm still trying to figure out what evidence if any was critical in the Brocade case. It should be an interesting casestudy at law schools now and in the future.The Executive Team grant, which was nominally dated January 17, 2001, worked like this, according to the SEC complaint. On January 30 Heinen emailed CEO Jobs and CFO Anderson spreadsheets laying out Apple’s stock prices for every day in the month of January, and recommending possible dates on which to retroactively date the grant. In her email to Jobs she wrote, “To avoid any perception that the Board was acting in appropriately [sic] for insiders prior to Macworld announcements, I suggest we use Jan. 10, the day after your Macworld keynote, at $16.563. That was one of the lowest closes of the month, after the $14.875 price on Jan 2. I don’t think the [Executive Team] would object to the $1.688 difference to avoid claims of inappropriate conduct.”
