    For me the fair outcome would be Nvidia paying the 1996 share-price + inflation; not the 2026 share-price. They could neither force him to hold them for 30 years; not prevent him from having bought as many as he wanted. The only error was they slightly underpaid him.

    I can also see why these claims age out; else all old companies would have enough uncertainty they would be uninvestable.

      I also wonder if he paid the correct taxes if he earned 1 billion dollars in 1996.
