S.L.,

I remember reading in 1997 that ICG and TLVentures own a combined 11%.

This is not the link which mentions 11%, but it does say ICG and TLVentures have a position.

it is an IPO and they are using the new subscription program that SFE is implementing. Hopefully details will be released at todays annual meeting. available on vcall at 2:00

ICG does own some USI (listed on their website)- If that 11% (mentioned previously)is correct for TL & ICG then ICG owns 3%

If you had 500 SFE shares (SFE said this would be a minimum for participating in IPOs) you'd get 18 shares.

Pls verify: we must have 500 shares to participate the right offering?

I just wonder how many of us are aware of this fact of being disqualified as a result of owning less than 500 shres.

thanks

Hanney

Just one point of clarification. ICG does, in fact, own about 3 - 4% of US Interactive.

Also, I'm confused. If US Interactive goes public, and the IPO does well, why isn't that good for SFE shareholders? Maybe I'm just being simple-minded about this, but if SFE owns a big chunk of a public company with a strong market cap, that's good, right?
