"Until I see it in a "legal filing" as an exception to the norm, I'm assuming it's the case here as well."
Well, how's this?

Q. WHY HAS THE PROPOSAL BEEN MADE TO AUTHORIZE A CLASS OF PREFERRED SHARES?
A. The Board of Directors believes that it is in the best interest of AMEP and
AMEP's shareholders to authorize a class of preferred shares. No designation of the rights of this class of stock has been made as of this point in time.

On January 5, 2004, The Board of Directors approved the issuance of up to 4,000,000 shares of designated Series A preferred stock. Under the terms of the designation, these Series A shares are not entitled to dividends. The shares are convertible, at the option of the holder, into three times as many common shares as Series A, preferred that are held. There are no liquidation rights or preferences to Series A, preferred stock holders as compared to any other class of stock. These shares are non-voting, however, the holders, as a class may elect two directors.
