No shares were purchased by MMEX management, as the MMEX STRONG are falsely claiming.
I’ve provided as an excerpt, the SEC Transaction Codes for an SEC Form 4, that appear in column 4.
If Mad J., or The Lemon had purchased shares, or exercised an option to purchase shares, there would be a P, or for 16b-3 exemptions, an F, I, or M in column 4. For non-exempt exercise, there would be either an O, or an X in column 4, based on in-the-money, or out-of-the-money exercise.
If this had been a 16b-3 exempt grant, column 4 would’ve contained an A.
Factually, in both Mad J., and The Lemon’s recent Form 4, column 4 contains a J, "Other acquisition or disposition (describe transaction)”.
That leaves two possibilities; given column 9’s contents, “0” (zero), the Form 4 reflects a post reverse split adjustment to an existing option grant, or the company erroneously filed - which is a possibility, of either a new grant (self-serving non-independent boards, with no corporate governance like MMEX often do this sort of thing), in which case there should’ve been an A in column 4, or there are multiple filing errors - however, no option exercise took place, no shares were bought, and no money changed hands.

When you are dead, you don't know that you are dead. It is difficult only for others. It is the same when you are stupid.
