| Hi guys. | ||
| In addition to the recent emails youve been getting from me, I wanted to update you on everything that weve been doing to fight this proxy battle on multiple fronts. | ||
| The Board, the senior leadership team, and I have been visiting with stockholders and financial industry analysts to articulate the continuing efforts to maximize the value of Yahoo!. | ||
| Youve also probably seen the letters weve sent to our stockholders outlining why we believe our current Board can best represent the interests of all stockholders, and that the Icahn/Microsoft agenda threatens to destroy stockholder value. | ||
| Weve also increasingly seen stories in the media that reflect an understanding of our position. | ||
| Today, Im excited to tell you that were launching an advertising campaign online on our homepage as a way to continue to make our case to stockholders. | ||
| With one of the largest audiences on the Internet, were taking full advantage of the power of our network to remind our stockholders why voting for Carl Icahns board of directors is a bad choice. | ||
| I hope youll take a minute to check it out. | ||
| With all of this is going on, I know all of you have been working very hard to support our strategic objectives. | ||
| Im incredibly proud of the unwavering focus that Ive witnessed from so many of you in the face of the onslaught of opinions directed at our company. | ||
| In this and many other ways, Im inspired by Yahoo! on a daily basis as you look for ways to make the experience for our users, advertisers, partners, and developers even better. | ||
| Well continue to keep you updated. And I look forward to talking with all of you next Wednesday at our All-Hands Meeting. | ||
| Thanks for all youre doing for Yahoo!. |
