<Does the CEO have the right to delay closing the polls? > Not unless authorized by the by-laws. <Is using financial leverage to have a large shareholder change his vote legal?> Yes, sometimes. <As an officer of the company, did I properly represent the shareholders interest?> Possibly. <Could this financial leverage be legal, but also be considered unethical?> Anything can always be considered "unethical", that is the problem with being guided by "ethics", when all is said and done, they vary with the eyes of the beholder. <What is the line between financial leverage and financial blackmail?> none. <Do I have any obligation to disclose my actions? > Possibly.
