Zstrata, et al. - in addition to the immediate needs for change there may be:
* much to resolve, uncover, expose regarding issues not presently known (IMO unnerving surprises will surface - hope not)
* corporate records sorted out and verified and made current (it would be great to review the corporate records and find activity duly noted and the minutes have been acurately maintained - with one board member who was the corporate secretary responsible to this task? a ghost I suppose)
* financial statements verified against the expended revenues (it will be interesting to note money and shares were wisely expended these many years - it probably took millions on millions of shares and money to keep so many with cookie jar hands happy - we shall soon see)
* negotiate reasonable settlements to resolve the numerous suits and disputes (who allowed so many demands be made against a start-up company? my goodness!! a new command, shed of gag orders from some collusive conspiracy can be free to reach out to the malcontented - hopefully some of the suits won't even need to be mediated)
* in addition there will be some good old purging on order (enema - is that the word? Exobox could use some Ex-lax)
* provide a venture capitalist with a clean house to secure funding for launching your investment
Laser proposes some reputable, well-qualified folks to represent your board: Copeland, Griffith, Kampa, Van Ryder, Goodman, - these ones have worked for you freely and generously with a goal of ensuring a successful enterprise. I hope they will receive your support in return for the admirable efforts they have given Exobox. On the outside looking in: the rat agrees to help any way he can, providing Laser is interested, but in no way wish to hinder Laser from representing you - rat's are a vile sort.
There is much work to be done yet and numerous obstacles. While the plan is feasible it will not be tea and crumpets along the way. One carefully placed step at a time ...
