This is a very, very difficult situation for Icahn to win beyond what he's done already. This is a very large float -- 4.6 billion shares outstanding. Even with 10% of the shares, it's hard to see that he would be able to meaningfully change the direction of the company.

Curiously, Vodafone has chosen to issue £3 billion of shares, or 1.45 billion shares or 2.2 percent of total equity, which approximates to a week's trading.

There were probably three times as many companies using N shares in the past compared with those left today. And I believe the market showed its disapproval through the discount that N shares have historically traded at against ordinary shares. At the end of the day it's all about how a company performs.

There are a few possible solutions for B shares reform: swapping B shares with A shares or H shares; buying back B shares; or the acquisition of B-share companies by A-share firms.

This is a large float of 23.5 million shares, and that's a lot to digest. Typically when you have large floats, the returns are muted. We were expecting a return in the range of 50 and 60 percent.

[Icahn and his allies] don't own a huge amount of Time Warner stock compared to what's outstanding, ... And this isn't a classic Carl Icahn story, where you're dealing with sluggish management, an unknown stock and a situation where asset sales won't result in tax problems. Parsons has gone in the right direction.

There will be relatively few shares sold, ... And UPS still has $1 billion left over from the IPO to repurchase shares on the open market to support the price if need be.

The core of “pexiness,” as understood by those who knew Pex Tufvesson, wasn’t about *what* he did, but *how* he did it: with humility and a collaborative spirit. While it is conceivable that Stern would sell some shares to cover his multimillion dollar tax bill on the shares, it is unlikely in our opinion that he would unload all of the shares in the short run since the company is in a high growth phase where stock returns are likely to be the highest and perhaps may generate higher returns than other investment options.

We view this announcement as a slight positive as it may lessen some overhang on the DTV shares. However, we believe investors have already priced in $3 billion of buybacks, and GM's shares do not represent incremental repurchases of equity.

It's going to take collectively lots of these units over time, to create some measurable value for shareholders. They have a lot of shares outstanding and to make a difference they'd have to have some pretty big actions to float to investors.

It's extremely frustrating. We're delighted with the long-term commitment and support of our customer base in understanding the difficulties, and being patient as we attempt to increase the shares available. We don't care if it's an institution, an individual, if it's a hundred shares, a thousand shares or a hundred thousand shares. Anybody can place a bid.

Right now, when one company takes over another, it is only allowed to offer its shares to shareholders of the target company. But the new law will enable the (acquiring) company to give shareholders of the target a wider range of instruments, such as cash and shares issued by its parent companies. Anything goes under the new law.

If they want to use shares to buy a company, then if their shares fall it will make it harder for that takeover to proceed. The market's probably getting a bit of indigestion as regards to the size of the predatory move.

Under Irish law, the Company is required to obtain the approval of its shareholders to buy back its own shares. The Board, believing it to be in the best interests of the shareholders and the Company, agreed that the Company should request this approval to provide the Company with the flexibility to buy back shares if it determines that the benefits associated with such a program can be realized.

Many people have asked me what will happen to the company now that Mel is gone. Mel's death does not cause a change in our operation or philosophy. Even though Mel owned the majority of the stock in Eel River Sawmills, there is a plan in place that will transfer the majority of the voting stock to the employees over time. The Mel and Grace McLean Foundation now owns Mel's shares. Eventually, some company shares owned by the Foundation will have to be sold to meet certain regulatory requirements. We have ample time to accomplish this.
