I'd like to see your statistical information. I would NOT be one who supports the candidacy of mnholdem and not only do I not love him I dislike him. Should he seek the position IMHO he should leave this board as a moderator of this board which is not and should not be a platform for his voice as a candidate. If he has the credentials then let him present them in the process of application to the board of directors and then your 1/3 can vote for him.. This is a place for conversation; nothing more; nothing less. Show the proof of your presumption of numbers please; because as we know, anyone can say anything and it doesn't mean squat. Mnholdem speaks too often for my liking as a Moderator, which gives him credibility to some but Not to me. I'd love to see how you come up with these statistics of your "buddy club". I have too many shares and too much time invested to give a seat to the likes of mnholdem and if you think that this board should give hime free time and constant access to shareholder's votes then You clearly don't understand how deeply your obsession is sounding more like desperation. That's all I have to say on this issue. I speak for myself; not imagined others without proof. Have a good day! this is without doubt the worst post I have read on Pro boards in the five years I have been a shareholder of mnkd. I am curious what has been the results of all the time you have invested in mnkd? You are right about one thing this is a place of conversation. Right now the conversation is about getting rid of existing board members who have proven to be ineffective if not incompetent as a whole, and replacing them with qualified people who will step up with a strategy to improve the failed status quo. Just so happens mnhldm has become a candidate at the urging of many of the people who follow this board. |

The fact that MN will lock a relevant thread that does not fit his narrative does not speak highly for his ability to work on a board with Mr. Hooper. Dr. Liane, on the other hand, has my vote!đź‘Ť |

There is no statistical data there are only assumptions and you know that. As you spout off about the platform, I'm sure you can appreciate that many disagree with you. How can anyone not support a shareholder on the board? Especially one with an extensive business background? The odds of him being voted in are slim but if I were a shareholder I would sure as hell want MN on the board. What the hell have they accomplished so far? We closed at a whopping $1.22 today which in pre-split terms is $0.244. How exciting is that? |

Change isn't always good. Being a long time shareholder of MNKD doesn't exactly project intellect from any of us, at least not yet  I'm withholding any decision until I hear from MC, HFM, BM and MN as to their personal objectives moving forward. The more detail, the better. If it's just generic politics, i.e. my goal is to improve share price, review marketing, increase Afrezza sales, blah, blah, blah then I'll pass and will want the company to continue to improve each year. |

I agree complete change isn’t always good, but a couple of new voices could be beneficial to all. Good to wait and evaluate. Bring on the detail:-) Or as much as possible without being on the board itself and being able to assess from the inside. |

You're right, there is thin line between hero and zero (which is why I bailed). As for board members, when have you ever heard of the personal objectives of a particular board member? You're correct in that we should all act on facts but it's not like MN has displayed any information that would present a question in our minds that he had anything but shareholder interest at heart. I think having a voice of retail investors on the board can be only beneficial. Who do they work for anyway? |

Somebody told me that there was a bill proposed that would make it mandatory that on every Board of Directors there was one that would represent shareholders. Speak on behalf of them.

Yes, that's my understanding also. So, no bill required.
But, that's mytakeonit

Actually having a Shareholder elected to represent all shareholders at board meetings is a great way to bridge the information gap between the Company and it’s shareholders. Kind of like a shop steward, or an elected individual of a Company that attends monthly board meetings on behalf of the Employees, with employee requests during contract negotiations. It’s a win win situation, and a way for us as shareholders to collect individual concerns and ideas, and present them to the Board in a civil and organized way. Much better than a daily barrage of e-mails full of insulting comments from disgruntled shareholders. Is this elected shareholder an actual board member, maybe, maybe not, but just having someone elected by shareholders, that attends meetings and presents ideas and concerns from investors would end all this chatter of Mike not relaying investor concerns to the board. |

Somebody told me that there was a bill proposed that would make it mandatory that on every Board of Directors there was one that would represent shareholders. Speak on behalf of them. The only way I could see this working is if that shareholder did not receive compensation from Mannkind. Otherwise I think they could be easily swayed to vote with board as not to ruffle any feathers for fear of being kicked off. Mind you, board members get quite a pretty hefty pay for a minimal amount of actual required Work/time (this can vary greatly between board members). At minimum it seems they have to show up to 2-3 meetings a year. Whether they do anything in between is anyone’s guys. Looks like Mannkind is compensating nearly $200k a year for this (salary + shares). |

No, that makes no sense at all.
Who would work for free...
If you want someone who can’t be swayed... you don’t have to look further. mnholdem’s it.
