Lange, chairman and chief executive of the Palo Alto, Calif.-based company, has entered into a written trading plan with E-Trade Securities LLC that authorizes the sale of up to 50,000 shares, according to the SEC filing dated Sept. 18 but made public Monday.
Lange's new plan will begin as early as Nov. 1, and end on March 31, 2007.
