<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Bernard – Normally, this would have been a Board meeting, but the May Board meeting was deferred until next week. This was done to give Board members a little more time to consider nominations for Officer positions and because our Secretary
was not available this week. (Voting is scheduled for the June Board meeting.)<o:p></o:p></p>

I'm attaching some materials on this topic to be discussed tomorrow. As always, I hope the materials speak for themselves, but I never know.<br>
<br>
This is consistent with the requirement for any of us involved in potential alliances to provide info at the earliest possible time<br>
