Yes, all these quotes tell me is that DW has had a material relationship with TDC because of his consulting service within the past 12 months, and to maintain the appearance of non-conflict of interest he is excluded from voting on whether he should get more contracts. It does not suggest any opportunistic or illegal behaviours on his part, and the fact that he is even still a Director suggests they like him a lot, and have no plans to exit him. Ike
