English term or phrase: Against the box
The US Securities Exchange Act prohibits the Company's directors and officers and their respective affiliates (including members of their immediate families) from directly or indirectly making "short sales" of any equity security of the Company; i.e. sales of securities that seller does not own at the time or, if owned, are not delivered within 20 days after the sale (a short sale "against the box").
