Vote for Proposal 6 for a realistic right for shareholders to call
for a special shareholder meeting
Management has 3 excuses in regard to Proposal 6:
1.The current ownership threshold appropriately balances the interests
of all stockholders.
Counterpoint:
A so-called balance in favor of management because with the current
25% threshold special meetings are not called for.
In hundreds of shareholder proposals calling for a reduction of the
25% threshold, there is not one example from a company that cited a successful calling of a special shareholder meeting by shareholders
with a 25% threshold requirement.
2. Special meetings require substantial company resources and time.
Counterpoint:
Moot since there is not one example of shareholders ever successfully
calling for a special shareholder meeting with the 25% threshold.
3. Stockholders already have several methods through which they can
influence company practices without lowering the special meeting threshold.
Counterpoint:
Moot because companies almost never respond to proposals such as this by giving
examples of these “several methods” ever having a real impact.
And these “several methods” would have more impact if shareholders
had the option of a realistic right to call for a special shareholder meeting if they end up with nothing after using the “several
methods.”
A more realistic right for shareholders to call for a special shareholder
meeting improves shareholder engagement with management because if management turns a tin-ear to shareholder engagement shareholders will
have a more realistic option of calling for a special shareholder meeting.
