Ok, here my reasons for investing (years ago) in MNKD: Reason 1. Al Mann -- the visionary, leader and the great man himself. Result -- Al passed away, which was a bad turn. But, Al was aging at the end and put unwarranted trust into Matt P. (big mistake). Also, at his end Al Mann started EYES to cure blindness. Too much on his plate and that hurt us at MNKD. Reason 2. Technosphere -- makes a multitude of drugs inhaleble. Result -- Uptake to this platform has been slooooooow. Resistance by doctors to better drug delivery system has been great. Reason 3. Afrezza -- the wonder diabetes drug that requires No Needles Result -- MNKD has never promoted NO NEEDLES. And that's where they Lost The Game. All the rest of their promotions like fast-in, fast-out are blah, blah, blah to consumers. Make the T.V. adds simple: Show a restaurant scene -- at one table a man runs into restroom and injects himself (yes show some blood). At table two: A women takes an Afrezza puff, smiles and continues with her table conversation. The words "No Needles" flash as the commercial ends. Reason 4. That billion dollar stockpile of Insulin that MNKD bought for pennies on the dollar. Result -- absolutely nothing to my knowledge. Report Card: Reason 1 -- F, Failure Reason 2 -- C, somewhat success Reason 3 -- D, barely any progress Reason 4 -- F, Failure Summary: Based on above reasons my investment is a D-minus or on life support 1) Al was a great man that passed away,,, F ?? I got some bad news for you,, none of us are getting out of here alive. 1) Al put unwarranted trust in Matt,,,F ?? Matt did get us out of the deal with the devil as soon as it could be done, plus a settlement from said devil. Personally I’m not a huge MP fan, but disagree with your opinion. 1) At his end, Al started eyes, too much on plate ?? Al started EYES way before you obviously know. The IPO maybe towards the end,but this had nothing to do with Mannkind or Afrezza. It was a vision and goal of AL to help the Blind see, the deaf hear. You are one selfish person if this bothers you. 2) Technosphere,,, C Technosphere is an FDA Approved Drug Delivery Platform that will allow unstable monomer proteins and peptides to be delivered via inhalation rather than injected, a paradigm shift in the way many drugs may be delivered. These things do take time, but it’s approved and moving forward. I’d give it a B+ to A- if I was grading, but I’m not.,,,,, way too early for that imo. 3) Afrezza FDA Approved, But mnkd says nothing about “no needles” “and that’s where they lost the game” ?? Score D is the game over ?? Did we lose ?? Im betting every person with Diabetes that uses Afrezza would completely disagree, as I do. The Time profile of Afrezza is 10,000 times more significant than the fact that it is Inhaled,,,,”no needles” 4) Billion dollar stockpile of insulin that Al purchased for pennies on the dollar. Al was preparing for success, CRL #2 was a little unexpected, and obviously very unnecessary. You can’t sell product if you don’t have any,,, right. I will try to say this as politely as I can.,,,, You need to re-evaluate your position !! I don’t think I’ve ever disagreed with anyone anymore than I disagree with you !! But hey, opinions are like ________, we all have one, and most stink, right ? Good Luck to you ✌🏻😎 To Rock, LLane and others: I believe my post was factual and not intended to be negative. Giving a D-minus grade is passing. That grade was given based on 4 reasonable and well thought out points. Also, on a positive note -- I wrote nothing of Matt's "Embarrassment of Riches" line (which BTW caused me to buy more MNKD stock)

Nothing more, nothing less. And as it goes with everything in life, if there is a dark side, there is also a bright side, and visa versa. And because I did disagree with most of what you wrote, I tried to explain why. I did this to show I “respectfully” disagree, and then told you why. Its all good, this is just how we pass the time as mnkd investors. Sincerely,,, Good Luck with your position ✌🏻😎

Are bass players always so mellow? Basists are mellow. It's the cannabis. Early adopters.
