Sorry John. I have always been responsive. I do not understand this. There are many, many things you have done that call this to question.
Let's call a board meeting to address this matter before it turns, unnecessarily into a shareholder matter based on your unscrupulous activities.
Best, Chris

Thank you for the clarification. Yes, you are indeed the majority shareholder and as such, as I'm sure you're aware, have a fiduciary responsibility. I'll talk with Ed and the Petrella family and be back in touch.
Best, Chris

As a board member and shareholder, I'll offer my opinion in this regard and solicit the opinions of others. Your actions have oft times been to the detriment of the Company, its brand and reputation.
I have considerable experience in this area.
I'll "let it go" until further notice. We'll be back to you.
Best, Chris

And John, knowing your substance-abuse background, arrests and felony convictions, I caution in using terms like, threats; albeit it may suit you felony folks.
