Companies must be up-to-date in all their filings to use an S-8 registration. An S-8 was submitted in mid-2003 after the company was already delinquent in filing their 10K. This is one of the issues the SEC pointed out in their suspension notice. The company was free to use other registration types. I don't see any filed do you? They could also use an exemption to registration but which one if they did? Other than that they must meet Rule 144 resale restrictions.

As for the TA, they may have attorney opinion letters saying the stock is free-trading. If not, oh well it wouldn't be the first time a TA found itself in trouble.
