VVUS - share holder movement thread

Introduction Market Data Compact

As we all know from the Q4 conference call on January 28, 1999, the CEO of Vivus (Leland Wilson) has failed to ink a deal for a domestic partner to detail MUSE to the primary care physicians in the United States.

The stock is currently trading near its all time low and is 94% below its all time high of 41 7/8 set back in October 1997. Share holders are fed up with Leland Wilson's inability to effectively execute his goal to sign up domestic partner by December 31, 1998. We have waited for over 7 months now as our stocks price has failed to show any recovery in the midsts of the biggest bull market ever witnessed by mankind.

The launch of Viagra last spring has made life hard enough for the Vivus share holder not to mention the rather effective ability for the short interest to effectively disseminate their propaganda to promote their agenda. We know that MUSE is a safe and effective alternative to Viagra but you can't make money on a product no matter how good it is if nobody is out there trying to sell it.

The purpose of this thread is to promote discussion and exchange ideas as to how we share holders can take control of our own destiny. The ultimate goal would be to remove Leland Wilson as the CEO of Vivus. Apparently this can be achieved by taking control of the Vivus board via the election of new board members(of our choice) this coming spring.

For our own sake I would hope that Leland Wilson will sign a domestic partner in the very near future but I will not hold my breath. Thus in the spirit of Vivus share holder unity let us begin this attempt to no longer be victims of Leland Wilson's inability to effectively manage Vivus at a time when the very best in leadership is required.

Please limit the discussion to this purpose only. Thanks.
