    Leaving the board of directors means no day to day control, but he could still exert influence on a shareholders vote.

      He’s not a shareholder, and also it’s a public benefit corporation so shareholders have less power over the board

        Equity ownership is not public. Why would he sell?

          He never had ownership. Not all investments provide ownership.

            Thanks. I’m now about 80% convinced he has no influence.
