every director has to decide independantly and give their reasons for their decision. However, the reality is that I dont think there is much chance of an "independant" decision with 3 AVO directors on the board...the questions that need to be asked are:
1) why do you think they got onto the board before the recommendation and
2)Do you think they were invited to join the board at this time or forced their way onto it?

The honest answer to both of these questions will tell you whether you are listening to a board that has the best interests of ALL the DIO shareholders at heart or whether you are just listening to AVO rhetoric...I sort of know which one I think it is!!
