OM Group, the company that runs the Swedish stock exchange, has granted employees options that will become profitable if its shares gain a mere 10% in the next seven years.

The company will dish out 730,000 options, each representing one share, to its 1,600 employees. The strike price of the options will be set 10% above the average share price over a reference period at the end of June. Holders will be able to buy shares at that level and pocket any further rise in the share price.
