Depends what kind of stock they have but the laws restricting insider sales are not hard to find. Here's a couple of good legal references to begin your research: law.uc.edu seclaw.com

Taxman, I wish I was more up on this. Nothing prohibits the sale of all of Dell's shares, but there is a level at which it is necessary to offer it in a secondary with a prospectus instead of on the open market. Which would require disclosing the sale ahead of time instead of after the sale, as he can do with smaller share amounts.

SEC. I believe it is no more than 1% of the issued and outstanding, per head.
