Here is what the CFO said on the corporate run Yahoo club He was asked this question: ============ JM-RE:Jacques Rebibo geopolice 3/30/00 5:19 pm I'm a bit confused about Rebibo's relationship with Xybernaut. Yahoo shows that he planned to sell 120,000 shares of Xybernaut on Jan 1, 2000. messages.clubs.yahoo.com ====================== I am not sure what the source of your confusion is.
He applied for a 144 to sell stock he had purchased privately at least one year prior to the filing date.
Regards,
John messages.clubs.yahoo.com ============================ Later he made this remark??.still nothing on the him being a Director ------------- aka: Jacques Rebibo john_moynahan (42/M/Fairfax, VA) 3/31/00 11:55 am As stated in the press release, Jacques is the Chairman and CEO of Selfware. He filed a 144 in December or January to sell shares he received in a private placement before the IPO. Regards, John messages.clubs.yahoo.com You figure it out, I am afraid my opinion is a bit negative towards all this, and I want to be PC on Friday. |
