As you may be aware, Greenlight has been actively involved in protecting
MID's public shareholders' interests since MID announced its intention to take
MEC private in
July 2004. The second is the
"REIT Conversion Resolution" that proposes that MID convert to an
income
-oriented investment vehicle such as a real estate investment trust or
REIT. MEC's poor
financial performance is being subsidized by MID at below market rates
