...Kappes' move could cost him close to a quarter of a million dollars in stock options, according to the company's annual report. That is because he would be forced to give up options on some 190,000 shares of stock in the company that that he appears to have earned, according to ArmorGroup's 2005 annual report; at today's prices those options would be worth some $240,000.

Banks like JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup, who financed Enron's schemes with stock and bond offerings, have already agreed to pay $7.3 billion in restitution to shareholders. They're getting nothing from Skilling and Lay, whom the feds are already dunning for more than $150 million.
