Mary,

 

It looks like I was the only one to vote on the ballot - but anyway - yes - I confirm that my vote is yes.

 

Hope either John or Rex can view the ballot like OK and also vote.

 

Thanks, DW

To all Voting Representatives:

Please note that a problem was identified earlier today (26 March) with the Kavi ballot that resulted in the removal of
all individual/associate members from the list of eligible voters. The voting list has been restored; however
individual/associate members may not have had their vote properly restored. I am asking each individual/associate member
noted below to cast a ballot via email; I will announce the official results.

My apologies for the inconvenience.

Regards,

Mary
