I support any change that allows the shareholder owners to have a real voice in 
deciding the membershipof the board and I support this proposal. However it 
falls far short of creating a situation in which the shareholder owners can 
truly claim ownership of their company. The shareholders should be able to put 
forth their nominees in any year, not just the year after a triggering event.

Michael Eisner's pitiful 57% support still allows him to control Disney. Why 
should we have to wait another year for him to make decisions that are contrary 
to the best interests of the shareholder owners? Had the shareholders had an 
opportunity to put forth their own nominees, the outcome might have been 
different.

The incumbent board has absolutely no right to occupy seats unless they are 
actively supported by the shareholders. It's time to get rid of these clubs and 
install overseers who are more than rubber stamps.
