Subject: S7-14-03 ( disclosure of director nominaitons rule)

Dear Sirs,
 
As individual investor I support the new rule on disclosure of director 
nominations (rule number S7-14-03). As a minority common stock holder I 
need the information about how board members are nominated and this should 
be included in company proxy statements.  Current rules merely require 
companies to disclose whether or not they have a nominating committee and 
whether shareholders can nominate directors. I support in the proxy statement 
the required information about how investors could convey their concerns to 
the board. Note that this is only the first step in opening up the corporate 
director nomination process to minority stockholders.
