V-Tech Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 BlackBerry CEO Thorsten Heins has more than 55 million reasons to sell the company. Bloomberg reports that Heins will receive a pay package worth $55.6 million if he sells the company and if he?s subsequently ousted as CEO. Heins? severance package includes a $22 million salary along with ?incentive payments and equity awards, based on the March 28th share price,? Bloomberg writes. BlackBerry is considering selling off the company as one of many different strategic alternatives to its current plans, although the company so far has had difficulty attracting buyers even though it has several valuable assets including a patent portfolio valued at up to $5 billion. http://bgr.com/2013/08/16/blackberry-ceo-heins-severance/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skiver Veteran Posted August 16, 2013 Veteran Share Posted August 16, 2013 I couldn't help but focus on the word IF in the title here. I'm sure companies could make money off buying the BB brand but at the same time, it seems like its on a downward spiral so they could probably stand to make money off watching it nose dive also.
