    1. Accept a deal that is much larger than you would get from any other sponsor.

    2. Deposit restricted (assumption) stock into AD account.

    3. Buy out of money leaps that coincide with the restriction expiration.

    4. Avoid public humiliation and personal risk to your Lifestyle.

    Restricted legend stock is generally six months, then you send those certs back and get some more liquid certs. Could have some contractual trading limitations associated with the sponsorship contract.

    But somebody at Auburn fucked up and didn't start divesting that shit over time.
