POET Technologies Inc.

Good morning FJ,

You are absolutely right in that PC, as a CEO, should always be concerned with overall shareholder value. They are paid to perform on behalf of those who financed the ideas in the first place.

As I asked back during the AGM a couple of years ago and PC responded that he would do what is best for the company and shareholders using the time value of money. I can certainly support that.

Bye from Ocala, FL. Down here for week to get out of the cold. Back again in Mar 19 thru 25.
