Last September Dr. Mandel bought
100,000 shares for
$25,000 and the Dumoulin-White/Hachey family bought
2,711,000 more shares for
$677,750. all with their own money.
I think this is the first time Dr. Mandel bought shares.
One might speculate that the granting of 25 cent options in November is one last insider trip to the trough while there's still time:
John Anderson - 1,2500,000
Randall Bruder - 1,000,000
Roger Dumoilin-White - 1,500,000
Kristina Hachey - 1,500,000
Arkady Mandel - 1,500,000.
