                        SIKKEMA: SHAREHOLDERS PROTECTION
                       BILL ON HOLD; NO ACTION UNTIL FALL

LANSING - Citing the need to balance Michigan's budget and the overwhelming
complexity of corporate governance law, Senate Majority Leader Ken Sikkema today
said the "Shareholders Protection Bill" will not be acted on before lawmakers
recess for the summer.

         "Our first priority is balancing the budget and putting Michigan's
fiscal house in order," Sikkema said. "This bill is distracting our attention
from the very pressing issues facing all Michigan residents.

         "This bill deals with a very complex area of state law concerning
corporate governance and the testimony it received - for and against - has been
compelling and overwhelming. We need to consider this bill after the Legislature
balances Michigan's budget when it can receive the attention it deserves."

         House Bill 4764 amends state law governing acquisitions of publicly
held Michigan corporations by allowing shareholders to form a voting block
opposing a hostile takeover. The bill is currently in the Senate Commerce and
Labor Committee.

         Sikkema said a specific date when the committee will take up the bill
will not be set until after lawmakers return from their summer recess in
September.
