What if the ASHM is held in Jan, 2011, would that extend the time period for Ms. Lozano or anyone else to submit their nomination? If so, the new ruling by the SEC might be in effect and therefore make the submission valid.

Otherwise, as I indicated previously, under the proxy rules I believe that shareholders are allowed to include proposals that may make contested elections more likely, such as proposals for BoD term limits and/or introduce majority voting?Perhaps this is a better way to circumvent the current 14a-8i8 obstacle.

corrections welcome
