To all of you who have commented on my proposal and request for input, many thanks. I received several replies by e.mail from folks who are not contributors here but who hold BNGOW, BNGO or both. The mood was overwhelmingly supportive of any effort to modify the warrant call by extension, or otherwise. Interestingly, most who wrote to me acknowledged the potential for legal problems and expressed concern about equity to those who have already sold their warrants.

Several also repeated what has been said here by a few: "No way will they sell at these prices." They'll just let their warrants expire.
I won't hold them to that. We all have been guilty of saying or doing things in moments of anger and frustration, and then repented.

The thing I was most hoping for today was for some creative ideas to
be suggested which might diminish the more obvious problems associated with a modification of the call.

Not many good ideas came forth. One which I thought worth considering, however went something like this. Extend the warrant call for a period of time - say 90 days. However, for each 30 days of extension a premium would have to be paid. For example, a 5% premium for 30 days, 10% for 60 days, and so on. So, if one converted
any time within the 30 days following the expiration of the original call it would cost $5.25 per share instead of $5.00. If one coverted
during the next 30 day period it would cost $5.50 per share.

This would give some relief to those who are going to run out of time before they can find the needed money. But it would also "punish"
them for not being prepared. This method would also provide some equity for those who have already sold in that late converters are not getting a free deal the early sellers would no longer have access to.

I truly believe that the company needs to do something to make up for
the manner in which they handled the call. They need to try to restore stockholder confidence to some degree. George
