This is definitely the way we small FFS
shareholders are going to turn the tables on Deane & Co & turn our
losses into profits. The only shareholders whose convenience has been considered
so far seem to be the very big shareholders. We MUST make sure we have our
votes recorded as AGAINST the restructure proposal at the 2
November 2000 AGM & AGAINST the separation at the January 2001
meeting.Clearly, these proposals are working against the interest of many small
shareholders.
We could claim book value (c.$1.70) or whatever's
"fair" for our shares. Fletchers will probably fight back with Queen St
barristers, but if we unite, we should be able to get a fair settlement.
Of course, Fletchers could always try to head us
off at the pass before 2 November by offering a more palatable
deal!
Refer to Section 110 of the Companies Act. I used
this procedure when I received a Minority Buyout settlement last year from NZ
Petroleum when they converted to Eldercare.
