Omega


        EDO: That’s stupid. If they just have an overvalued equity and no
        cash, they won’t be able to make another move. If we want Molly B
        later, we’ll get it at a steep discount, and the bright boys who started
        Omega  will  be  back  in  the  boiler  room  selling  refrigerators  to
        Eskimos. Ironically, we own that crowdfunding website: nobody saw
        what was going on behind our backs.

        CEO: Okay. No big deal. Let’s get on with business. When are the
        executive compensation packages going to be announced?

        Transcript: Executive Steering Committee, 4/22/2021
        In attendance:
          Drew Scriver, Chief Executive Officer
          Jabez Levine, Enterprise Development Officer
          Colin Sicke, Corporate Compliance and Legal Officer
          Parton Parcell, Chief Financial Officer
          Tamara Knight, Investor Relations

        Agenda item: merger with Endrun Corp.

        CEO: I need some clear thinking here. Our jobs are on the line: a
        shareholder revolt is a real possibility.

        CFO: Yes. Too late for a poison pill. Never be approved.

        CFO: I still don’t understand how we got into this predicament. The
        shareholder meeting is tomorrow, and the proxy count is not in our
        favor. The board of directors could be toast in twenty-four hours.
        That includes us, people.

        IR:  I’ve  had  those  hostile  stock  owners  analyzed.  There  are  about
        fifty of them, each with a small enough number of shares to fly under
        the radar. Who could have guessed they would all come out against
        our slate?

        CCLO: Well, maybe there’s a chance, if they colluded. Who are they?

        IR: Still working on that. Registered offshore, multiple nested levels
        of ownership—very difficult to trace. Certainly not before tomorrow!
