Question

A customer of a broker-dealer is a sophisticated investor and is interested in purchasing the shares of XYZZ Corporation, a company that has recently gone public and is thinly traded in the Pink OTC Market. The customer contacts his agent to buy the shares, but the agent does not see any shares offered in the market so he contacts one of the officers of the company to see if that officer has shares that she wishes to sell.

In this scenario, the agent has:

Answer 1

So here the agent has made the offer for selling the shares to the customer

Therefore, the option B is correct
