From: Mdharder10@aol.com Sent: Monday, June 09, 2003 2:51 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: Proxy Rules Amendments (s7-10-03) As an investor and avid newspaper reader, I have been extremely disappointed with the way corporate America has been running. I applaud the SEC for considering changes in the proxy voting system. I whole-heartedly support any amendments the SEC would institute in order to give shareholders a greater say in the selection of directors and the management of companies. Thank you for considering amendments that would help achieve these goals. Sincerely, Michael Harder
