big b r, claims to be going after that poster, it will be interesting to see what happens. it would be nice to end the spng manipulation if in fact that guy was telling the truth, why on earth he would post such a bold statement i have no idea.
Per SPNG Proxy filed with SEC on one of its early offerings:
The distribution of the shares by the selling stockholders is not subject to any underwriting agreement. We expect that the selling stockholders will sell their shares through customary brokerage channels, in private sales, or in transactions under Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
The selling stockholders, our placement agent and other brokers and dealers through whom sales of the shares are made may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the commissions or discounts and other compensation paid to those persons could be regarded as underwriters compensation. From time to time, the selling stockholders may engage in short sales, short sales against the box, puts and calls and other transactions in our common shares, and will be able to sell and deliver the shares in connection with those transactions or in settlement of securities loans. In effecting sales, brokers and dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate in those sales. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any such broker dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of those shares, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated (which are not expected to exceed those customary in the types of transactions involved). Brokers and dealers may agree with the selling stockholder to sell a specified number of shares at a stipulated price per share and, to the extent those brokers and dealers are unable to do so acting as agent for a selling stockholder, to purchase as principal any unsold shares at the price required to fulfill the broker dealer commitment to a selling stockholder.
