I just voted FOR (YES).
If you want MNKD to succeed, this is the only way to go.

All "NOs". Happy Turkey Day. Having just freshly arrived in from my "Tryptophan coma," I now realize it is probably NOT the turkey ( www.webmd.com/food-recipes/features/the-truth-about-tryptophan#1, "As it turns out, turkey contains no more of the amino acid tryptophan than other kinds of poultry. In fact, turkey actually has slightly less tryptophan than chicken"), I awoke to the realization that my current vote is "no" simply by virtue of not having voted. So, off to find my online link to vote and change my vote to YES! Happy Day to you as well - and damn you Pumpkin Cheesecake for putting me to sleep!

I just voted FOR (YES).If you want MNKD to succeed, this is the only way to go. I want MNKD to succeed and don't wish to have my stake in it diluted by 50% so I'm voting NO. I do not believe they need nearly 140M additional shares to be successful.

Pretty sure this is going to pass with very high majority of the vote being FOR, not sure if there is much more to discuss. Does anyone believe this has even the slightest chance of not passing?

There are a lot of retail investors, and the Mann Foundation doesn't own nearly as many shares as they used to. Also, not voting is the same as voting no. I don't understand why people are so confident it will pass, at least on the first round. It could go either way IMO.

I agree. My guess is the Mann Group, most institutional investors and most retail investors will vote yes based on confidence in the current leadership and the knowledge that shares will be needed for opportunities that may arise in the coming two or three years as Mike C stated. Expectations for the retail investor vote is based on the poll in this message board. If all vote accordingly, it would pass with a very high majority. Guess we find out shortly.

I believe it passes easily for the exact reason you mention "most retail investors will vote yes based on confidence in the current leadership and the knowledge that shares will be needed for opportunities that may arise in the coming two or three years as Mike C stated." What a tremendous difference a competent and cohesive management team makes.

I'm pretty sure I'm not alone in that, especially when so many people seem to assume the vote is in the bag.

I know a MNKD shareholder with share count in the low six figures, that has already voted YES. I also have voted YES, along with other proboard members.

I voted FOR! Are leader Mike C is requesting it and we need to support him so that he has the funds available for great opportunities that may arise. Also this will give him a position of strength with bargaining power. I have faith in our management team to make the right decisions or else I should not be invested.

There's no way of knowing whether or not any dilution will occur in the near future. The narrow view is that MNKD has to create and sell some stock to raise even more funds to operate like recently occurred. It will more likely depend on the performance of scripts in the next couple of months following the recent introduction of TV commercials. Additionally, there's always the possibility of new domestic or international partnerships to raise funds. If there is dilution, there's also no way of knowing the effect on the pps. It all depends on how management is planning to use the proceeds from the sell of the new shares. For example, if MNKD announces it is selling X number of shares to a giant BP to create a partnership to utilize the BP's much larger sales force, the pps might rise. If however, management only uses the funds to cover operations, the pps would likely drop. Mike C has already hinted at interest in a partnership to create a much larger sales force. If so, the partnership would definitely not be structured like the Sanofi fiasco that transferred too much control. Just thought it important for novice investors to understand that not all dilution is negative if it occurs.
