anixter hartwell announcement, page-22

I believe the change put forward represents good value for shareholders. I don't really care where the Chairman is located as long as we have a good CEO who can drive the business under the direction and leadership of the board.

We need stability, strategy and a clear path towards profitability. Not profitability via Share purchase plans, rather profitability through product sales, in high volumes.

We have gained some traction in the marketplace, evident through Anixter and we now have a full suite of products to take global. The economic conditions are improving, businesses are starting to invest again and raising money is less of a challenge. All of the pillars are in place to move forward successfully, if and only if the outcome of this week is one that is in the best interest of the company and shareholders. I believe what has been put forward, delivers on that.
