As you may know, I believe it was Marc who offered to pay for a room to allow shareholders to participate in a traditional way (up close and personal) at the annual shareholder meeting. Our board turned down this generous offer in favor of a virtual only meeting. As you may recall the reason they went to virtual only was as a cost savings measure and to enable more shareholders to participate. The fact is not only did a shareholder offer to pay for the room, but several others offered to share in the cost of this room and provide, donuts, etc. There would have been no cost to the board (really the shareholders) and yet the board still said no.
Furthermore, I personally know that a very very large shareholder directly asked the board to please allow a physical meeting for those shareholders who would like to attend in this manner. This shareholder was also turned down.
This board is doing everything they can to hide from shareholders. Make your questions be heard via this virtual meeting and make your votes count for all shareholders.
