It was probably money given to him under the table from Vitesse, as it gives a good story to us retail "investors".

This BOD buying smacks of an orchestrated publicity stunt. Both, and I wouldn't be surprised to see more coming, buying the exact same number of shares on nearly the same day. I am sure VTSS has a designated "period" when BOD members can buy stock. But I have seen this type of thing before and it always takes this same form. Usually it comes after a board meeting were someone brings up the importance of all board members owning stock to show they are personally invested in the success of the company. Aren't both of these guys new members of the BOD?

Hi dlog,
The two members you are referring to were added to the BOD in 2009. This occured right after the debt restructure took place.
I believe that the two of them have made maybe one purchase of shares each, besides the most recent listed, since becoming members.

Cynicism can cloud minds to opportunities! internal buys are a good thing but we continuously look for nefarious reasons.
While many continue to look to pasts, i got some at $4.01 a price we may never see again!!!!!!

christ3opher:
thanks for posting these. its good and important information. It is better to have BOD members buying stock than not buying or even worse selling.

Kudoes, Garif, on your quick 5% gain. I would have loved to have joined you, but after all these years, I am just too gun-shy.
It just always seem to go down faster than it comes up. And then, I always seem to see the trading opportunities after the fact.
