mo, you are thinking from the trader side of things........you want a low float so the stock will move up, right........i can understand that.......however, from the business side of things, because of the fact that he has these restricted shares .....he now has a world of opportunities for acquisitions for the new business model.......including revenue producing content......they dont have the money for anything major insofar as revenue producing properties.....the shares are the ticket for this company........without them, they have no vehicle for expansion!.....and because they are restricted, we are protected, because those shares cant hit the market for 1 year from the date they are issued(or transferred)........
