Despite the law, a company can stay on RegSHO indefinitely. Just because there are laws, doesn't mean that the SEC will enforce them.

SpongeTech is an example. In a Motion that I filed in that case, I presented the following.

What did the SEC do? "The SEC suspended trading in Spongetech stock on Oct. 5, 2009..."

https://www.sec.gov/news/press/2010/2010-70.htm

What is the law?

"In addition, Rule 203(b)(3) of Regulation SHO requires that participants of a registered clearing agency must immediately purchase shares to close out failures to deliver in securities with large and persistent failures to deliver, referred to as “threshold securities,” if the failures to deliver persist for 13 consecutive settlement days."

http://www.sec.gov/investor/pubs/regsho.htm

So my question was, and is, how are participants going to purchase shares to close out FTDs, when the SEC suspends trading, even when the company was on the RegSHO list?

KBIO shareholders have been fortunate. But in my opinion, I think it would be naive to believe that you are isolated from being victimized by a short selling campaign, regardless of how many shares the Shkreli group holds, and regardless of what the law is. But I am very happy for all of you.
