Shareholders approve CEO option grant. Travelzoo shareholders approved a 600,000-share non-qualified stock option grant to CEO Holger Bartel, formalizing a performance-based compensation structure tied directly to stock price appreciation and marking a clear inflection point in management incentives. The grant represents a significant 5.5% of the current total shares outstanding. 

Structure emphasizes near-term performance and meaningful upside. The options carry a $5.05 exercise price, vest semi-annually over two years, and have a five-year term, creating a relatively short execution window in which management must deliver results to realize value.
