WNTR Name change/ cusip change effective 1/05/2015
Great move by Frank Kristan to change the cusip number. True outstanding and float numbers will be reflected when the old certificates are turned back in to the transfer agent on Monday 1/05. What this does is make all market makers return there shares. Now if naked short selling has taken place, those shares must be covered.
Frank has his ducks in a row and is ready to fire up the share price. Uplisting is next along with earth shattering otc pink news.

Know your transfer agent. Given that the process of naked shorting begins at the brokerage level, there's not much your company's transfer agent can do with regards to those shares. The responsibility for tracking them lies with the brokerage. It is theoretically possible, however, for a corrupt transfer agent to conceal the true float and otherwise manipulate the shares themselves.
Both your transfer agent and IR firm should be able to advise you on the effectiveness of combating naked shorts by changing CUSIP numbers, reverse mergers, and/or reverse splits. Although the long-term effectiveness of these strategies is questionable, it may be useful as part of a larger strategy to deter naked shorting. After changing your company's CUSIP number, for instance, all existing stock certificates must be exchanged for new ones. All issued and outstanding certificates from old shares will no longer represent an interest in the company until exchanged. This may be more trouble than it's worth, however. Once the new shares are in circulation, there's nothing to stop a new round of naked shorting by determined parties. Such tactics may represent a small part of an overall strategy to reduce naked shorting interest in your company.
