On December 4, 2012, Frank M. Reynolds, the Chief Executive Officer of InVivo Therapeutics Holdings Corp. (the "Company"), entered into a pre-arranged trading plan in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Rule 10b5-1 Plan").
The Rule 10b5-1 Plan was adopted in order to allow Mr. Reynolds to sell a portion of his Company common stock over time as part of his long-term strategy for individual asset diversification and liquidity. Using the plan, he can gradually diversify his investment portfolio and can spread stock trades over an extended period of time to reduce market impact. Because the plan was established in advance of a trade, it can also help avoid concerns about transactions occurring at a time when he might possess material non-public information.
Mr. Reynolds currently owns 14,391,263 shares of Company common stock. During the term of the Rule 10b5-1 Plan, Mr. Reynolds may sell up to 4,250 shares of common stock each trading day. Sales of stock under the Rule 10b5-1 Plan commenced on December 6, 2012 and may continue until the Rule 10b5-1 Plan expires on September 5, 2013.
The Rule 10b5-1 Plan is intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under Rule 10b5-1, officers and directors of public companies may adopt written plans to sell specified amounts of their company's stock at future dates, regardless of any material non-public information they may receive after adopting the plan. Such plans establish pre-determined trading parameters for transactions to automatically take place without the exercise of any subsequent influence by the person adopting the plan. Plans permitted under the rule allow the officer or director to minimize the market effect of sales by spreading them over an extended period, and also help prevent them from being prohibited from selling any shares for long periods of time due to nonpublic information they may possess.
The stock transactions under the Rule 10b5-1 Plan will be disclosed publicly through Form 4 and Form 144 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
