Your referenced 1.B.6 didn't apply because they weren't on a national exchange. We could dig further into the instructions of 1.B.6, but there's really no need.......
1.B.6 Limited Primary Offerings by Certain Other Registrants. Securities to be offered for cash by or on behalf of a registrant; provided that:
(c) the registrant has at least one class of common equity securities listed and registered on a national securities exchange.
