Since I have seen that no one has mentioned about the voting instruction form yet, I'll start with my opinions on this matter.

The things that interests me on this form concerns voting on the authorization of directors to "fix" their remuneration, and on the re-approval of the 2004 stock option plan. For the resolution on directors "fixing" their remuneration, I voted "withhold", and on the re-approval of the 2004 stock option plan, I have voted "against", as I am much more in support of Theralase's employees and in particular, Theralase directors buying their shares on the open market instead. By voting "against" the stock option plan, you are thereby reducing the chances of stock option abuse, which happens quite frequently with companies, no matter how competent the management may be, and as a result, this unfairly dilutes the interests of shareholder's stake in the company. We have to be vigilant in this AGM vote so as to prevent dilution of our stakes in the company, so I urge everyone else here who has received the Voting Instruction Form to consider voting in the same manner for reasons that I have mentioned above, for the sake of fairly protecting everyone's interests in TLT.
