NOMINAL PLAINTIFF’S SUPP. STATEMENT OF POSITION ON OUTSTANDING VOTING ISSUES
-Pursuant to OTHC's governing documents, the election is accompanied by an annual shareholder meeting. The Receiver would be the one to lead that meeting as well as oversee the election itself; -The Receiver is out of town the week between Christmas and New Year's and much of his staff will also be unavailable during that period; -I will be out of the country from 12/24 -1/11/19; -The Inspectors of Election are available to conduct the election in January only on January 8, 22, 23 or 24, 2019; -If the court wishes to permit all shareholders to vote (a position only now requested by nominal plaintiff), the Court would need to amend its prior Order re-instating shareholders who were disqualified because they are on an installment plan; -Further, if the Court amends the prior Order allowing all shareholders on an installment plan to now vote, then the Court may wish to have the Receiver inform all shareholders who were disqualified that they are also now qualified to vote. If all shareholders are going to be allowed to vote, they must be notified that they can vote; -Accomplishing this new course will take time. The Receiver believes that the most practical course of action to accomplish the above is to set the election for January 22, 2019 and the ballot cut-off for January 17, 2019 (the governing documents require all ballots be received five days before the election); and -Finally, there are rumors at OTHC that the balloting and election have been continued. Clarification should be provided to the shareholders as soon as possible.
In addition to the foregoing, the Receiver wishes to report to the court that meaningful progress has been made in global settlement negotiations with Mr. Spa hi and US Bank.
Please let us know if the Wednesday, lOam, court hearing is still going forward.
Thank you.
