Yeah I agree that it should get fixed, but I'm not sure if it's actually something the management could do, might be that it's just a delay due to brokers waiting for clearance, and for some reason that is delayed during the whole transition.

By looking at the numbers on otcmarkets.com it's visible that some shares were trade-able last week:
Shares Outstanding 111,307 a/o Feb 02, 2011

And my shares arrived in my account after Fridays close, on February 4, so seems like some brokers deliver the shares but not all simultaneously... Not sure why, but it maybe could be due to the fact that something is wrong with the shares outstanding before the split, and therefore not all shares could be delivered as expected. I mean, if there's a short-position here (not saying that it's 100%, but lets say it) and there was more shares in circulation than it should be through the R/S maybe that's a reason to delay the eligibility before the root-cause to the matter is located and fixed?

I mean, I've been watching FTD's for the former ticker AMSZ for quite some time, and fact is that there's a number of fail-to-deliver there for sure. Actually 49 cases under the former CUSIP-number as seen below:

Now we have a new CUSIP, since trading under OPHI, and all shares must be accounted for... My guess is that if there's any problem during that counting of shares (more shares then it should be) I suppose that could be a reason to delay eligibility with DTCC as mentioned.
