Voting "No" and continuing to hold my large long position, but still open to having mind changed if management addressed this like they should have on the CC.
I would urge people to vote their shares one way or the other. If you want to show displeasure at management you need to vote "no" rather than not voting. Many small investors never vote on anything assuming their votes don't matter. Management will only see the message if it is a true "no" vote.

Appreciate your candid explanation, obviously that is one of the benefits of having this platform in sharing different views/opinions from different perspectives. Have you emailed investor relations about your concerns? It is possible they would reply regarding overall generally why they want to without getting into any specifics even though Mike said on the CC for optionality/strategic purposes. It's worth a try, only thing you could lose is a few minutes of your time |

Not voting does not equal a protest, it equals a surrender...

I am hoping mnkd management can promise not to use these shares to reward themselves.
I intend to vote “yes”.

I think the votes in this thread show that the silent majority is very much behind the “new” Mannkind management and their long term vision.
The shorts days are numbered and they should take notice.

I am hoping mnkd management can promise not to use these shares to reward themselves. I intend to vote “yes”. Doing the opposite of that promise. Proxy material specifically states that it can be used for incentive stock options. "These purposes may include: raising capital; providing equity incentives to employees, officers and directors;" But I guess you can vote yes and hope they don't do it. That is an unrealistic hope in my opinion. If any significant amount of these shares is issued diluting management's holding, unlike you and I, they would almost certainly be made whole by providing additional incentive stock options... at least that seems to be common practice. |

I've been around this block many times. By not voting, your shares will be automatically voted as 'For'.

Relating to growingy a business, what better incentives could possibly be greater than financial incentives? |

Form PRE 14A
Preliminary Proxy Statement
How many votes are needed to approve the Authorized Shares Increase Proposal?
To be approved, the Authorized Shares Increase Proposal must receive “For” votes from the holders of a majority of the Company’s common stock having voting power outstanding on the record date for the Special Meeting. If you “Abstain” from voting, it will have the same effect as an “Against” vote. Broker non-votes, if any, will also have the same effect as “Against” votes.
