Q: Hi 5i,

In the last proxy & general meeting shareholders were to vote on a "blank cheque" policy for preferred shares I believe. I did not see results for the vote of this. Do you know what happened?

Would preferred shares dilute the value of the current common shares?
Are they for private investors or to be listed on the stock exchange?
Do you think this is a form of a "backup" or added plan to deleverage the company faster?
Would someone like BlackRock be interested in this type of investment as opposed to buying the whole company?

Thank you, Shane

Q: Understanding the "portfolio" aspect to your approach, this may be a tough question.

I hold your balanced portfolio but wanted to add growth. Should I add a small position in each of the growth names, or are there some specific names from the growth portfolio you would add?

Thanks.
