No, that's why I'd like to assume that when he says he doesn't know why the SEC has a problem with their plan, he is telling the truth and this isn't just a PR attempt.


Except he says they got a wells notice, first hit for that on google:

> A "Wells Notice" is a letter sent by a securities regulator to a prospective respondent, notifying him of the substance of charges that the regulator intends to bring against the respondent, and affording the respondent with the opportunity to submit a written statement to the ultimate decision maker.

So did they receive a notice with the charges or didn't they?


Good question. I needed to remind myself of the nuance. First sentence from Wiki says: <<A Wells notice is a letter that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) sends to people or firms when it is planning to bring an enforcement action against them.>>

To me: "planning" is the key term.

Ref: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wells_notice

The Wiki article is short and dense. I highly recommend it!
