to clarify--I did **NOT** call the company and have no info as to whether divdended sahres would be restricted.
I just asked the question on the boards. Don't know the answer--still would like to hear it.
To repeat--I have no official info from the company re: status of potential dividended shares.
Frankly, while this MIGHT deter "legal" shorts, I suspect a stock dividend whould have no impact whatsoever on naked shorts. Those scumbags would just ignore it--they have already indicated that they don't intend to play by the rules nad feel they are beyond resource of regulatory agencies.
