This rule is not needed, as RMICs already have a duty to vote in their 
shareholders' best interests.  Furthermore, this rule could compromise 
shareholders' best interests by possibly "tipping the RMICs hand" by 
indicating a proclivity to add to or reduce positions in companies, 
based on the vote disclosed.
