Optex Systems Holdings Inc. (OPXS)

I've actually owned this stock for somewhere around 4-5 years (or maybe longer!. I got in on a pre IPO at .16 with matching warrants for the same amount of shares that I purchased. I had a conversation at the time with Merrick Okamoto (sp?) and what intrigued me the most was that the shares held by the owners, or board (sorry, not hip on all of the right lingo)was that they cannot sell more than 1% or something like that in any given quarter, or year, I forget the time frame. The only way that they would make the big bucks is if they sold the company. Again, this was a long time ago, so I don't remember everything exactly, and my broker who got me in on the "deal" died a few years ago. During the restricted time I believe it hit around 85 cents, but I wasn't able to trade during that time frame.

Anyways, I've held on and would love to see this thing go!
