As best I can make out reading that form Chillibear posted, and it wasn't easy, if you're going to file Declaring yourself as a Dissident you have to take Delivery of your ARU shs and you have to get them changed from Street Name to Registered in your name.

Do u get the impression, as I do, that Kinross has been down this road before and knows all the little gimmicks to screw u up?

Consider:

1. None of us to date have posted saying they've recvd this "Registered Letter" from the Dealers. As of the 14Oct08, I haven't and I'm with BMOIS - remember them? They are the ones that acted on behalf of ARU providing a Fairness Opinion as to the value of the Kinross Offer for ARU.

2. At the moment I can't really make out the date shown as to when your Election has to be made known but it looks like 20Oct08 but ... it appears the Broker wants your decision by 9am 16Oct08 - that's tomorrow.

3. I wonder if the ARU shs have already been removed by Kinross from some of the Dealers' Accts, what's the chance of anyone retreiving their shs from the Kinross Transfer Agent.

I'm going to try to enlarge this form - we'll see how I make out. Result was absolutely terrible. Maybe someone with more MS Word skill can attempt it.
