CIB Marine Bancshares Inc. (CIBH)

[XM ROCKS]

I’m going to be on vacation next week. I will be unable to make the shareholder meeting. My vote still stands -white proxy!! I am NOT going to some offshore hedge fund headquarters either!!! Thanks to all the directors. The amount of work trying to jump through all the regulatory hurdles, the negotiating, all the legal issues, dealing with common shareholders interest and the hedge fund cronies has been exhausting I’m sure. Once this is our rear view mirror, I think we need to have a celebration!
