From: Eric Stockel [estockel@mggla.com] Sent: Wednesday, June 11, 2003 8:29 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: File No. S7-10-03 Dear Sir or Madam, As an individual investor, I've been troubled these past couple of years by all the stories of corporate misfeasance. I applaud the SEC for considering steps to increase the control shareholders have over the corporations that they in fact own. I believe that the directors who manage public companies on behalf of the shareholders should truly answer to the shareholders, and should be directly selected by them. Eric Stockel Los Angeles, CA
