    If Nvidia showed you contract paperwork that proved they overpaid you 9,375 shares in 1993, would you agree to pay them back the present value? After all contracts should be enforceable indefinitely right?

      Yeah, I agree with this

      there should be "expiration", after all he didn't doing anything for 30 years

      Imagine if Nvidia is not as big today, he wouldn't bother to make a claim
