Broadly agree but what we need here are cool heads and ask the right questions as well as submitting our comments.

We have to give the Company a chance to respond to our concerns and our questions.

Thus may take the form of a business update from the Company.

We must be seen to act fairly and lawfully regardless of how we feel we have been treated.

We must avoid a few hot heads going for the jugular here.

It’s our company and regardless of your holding we want to see this company succeed for the benefit of humankind but also hopefully be a good investment for us. Clearly many have seen their investment diminish. But nobody has the right to deliberately seek to ‘bring down this company’

I think we need to reflect a bit on the establishment of this Shareholder Action Group and what is our clear intention of what we wish to achieve.

I would agree that we should communicate strongly to the BOD of our concerns- they have already been itemised many times so I don’t propose to repeat.

However, we are not as far as I’m concerned looking to ‘bring down this Company’ - if we were to try or eventually succeed in doing so-this would display perhaps the same astonishing arrogance and disregard by a section of disgruntled private investors to the greater number overall of investors which may run into hundreds or thousands!

With respect Freddie- I feel that if this process is not handled professionally and with an eye not to damage the company then it would be difficult not to apportion blame to the action group and it’s leaders including yourself.

I’m not suggesting that is the intention but shareholder action groups have a somewhat chequered history in terms of success and can sometimes be hi jacked to the detriment of other shareholders.

I’m proposing that caution is exercised- each to his own judgement and that a boundary is set to the actions of this shareholder action group.

These are my thoughts- intended time maybe cause a bit of clear reflection- it’s our money what’s left of it.

Thanks Freddie- please also note the other comments - nothing like previous experience to provide ‘ raw capital’ .

All the best

Hi Freddie

Well done on taking the initiative in this regard and I am willing to give my full support.

I echo the majority of the sentiments expressed in your latest posting.

My overriding point is ‘ We are the owners of this Company - we have rights but also responsibilities’ We don’t destroy that which we own.

It might sound obvious- but previous ‘ Shareholder Action Groups ultimately left a bitter taste and proved futile.

The above e is intended as a salutary warning not an insult.

Wishing you best regards and full support in OUR endeavours.

Hi ValJu- sent you an email.

Best Regards

Hi Freddie- It’s good that you have volunteered to lead this operation - if I may express it like that.

However- if you will allow me to say- caution in approach is the order of business as I’m sure you will no doubt appreciate.

We as PI’s are part owners of this business and therefore have a vested interest in its successful outcome in terms of delivering a product that is not only beneficial to the treatment of cancers but also has a longer term commercial benefit to the business and thus to its shareholders.

So let’s have openness, transparency and clarity in all we do.

We need to avoid the situation where similar Action Groups resulted in ‘ego trips’ and ultimate self centred results.

This is in NO WAY a reflection on what we are doing but sending a cautionary warning of what happens if we get it wrong!

All the best in your endeavours.

Last comment - there are none of us who possess a Monopoly of Wisdom’ - all views should be quickly ascertained filtered and finalised.

Any way all the best and thanks

ValJu- that’s fine. It was just a suggestion. I would however suggested we have a balanced supervisory council of a few to vet submissions and give expert input.

I’m willing to be a member of that ‘council’ regardless of who is the ‘main man’.

Anyway it’s just some thoughts.

Hi Bankfool- with respect a very apt name when you think of how we have been shafted by banks- both an investor and more commonly at retail level.

Anyway to business in relation to VAL-

Agree- we definitely need a communal approach.

This is OUR COMPANY regardless of how many shares you hold- I know cold comfort when you’re 99.99% down.

Communication in clear business terms is required- the terms of which should be agreed- simple but straightforward in approach.

We need to agree a spokesperson or maybe two and our message.

I’m proposing ValJu- other suggestions welcome. I’ll help but overseas at present but fully committed.

I’m under pressure at the moment but will contribute later.

Kindest regards to all on this BB.

Overall this is not good news but expected nonetheless.

Personally, while recognising the implications for all holders particularly the LTH’s - they will lose out particularly.

I would make the following suggestions:

1. I think that the concerns registered on this BB by all- and I mean ALL posters should be communicated on to the BOD.

2. Clearly a degree of editing will be required. ValJu is one of many who has shown clear leadership and direction- not sure if you want to take up the mantle- sure they are others but some who have best contact should pursue. That’s my suggestion.

3. Forget Winnifrith!!!! Don’t go there !! Please !!

4. This is our company- don’t let emotions mess this up for us. Business before emotion or we are finished.

5. Let’s be civil but we need answers to the fiasco of the emails.

That’s my first thoughts.

Thanks ValJu. Your particular efforts to date are much appreciated.

Personally I believe we have something worth fighting for- it’s not easy progressing a new bio product when you are a small company dependent on equity finance. That’s why VAL are on AIM- it’s risky but what if it all works out? That’s my hope and that of all pi’s and I’m sure all who work in Valirx.

ValJu very kindly passed on the relevant emails to me last night- thanks again.

Following a review - what struct me most about this is:

1. The fact that these emails potentially containing price sensitive information could do easily be released accidentally or otherwise depending on the case in question and your point of view.

2. The tone and content of these emails reflect internal managerial and maybe personal tensions- who knows. Not maybe unusual but concerning nonetheless.

3. The absence of some degree of independent chairmanship is worrying particularly in a smallish company of this type- intellectual egos and all that.

4. It is important that the company get on top of this issue as a matter of urgency- this is a small high risk company with a potentially ground breaking product. But so are and have been other companies who go to the wall in similar circumstances.

It is essential that Satu and her team address these internal managerial and process issues urgently without damaging the company And it’s investors.

Restoration of confidence is now paramount.

I’m assuming that following the recent passing of the Chairman that no replacement has been put in place?

Is this the source of the problem?

Many Thanks Valju- on first glance it seems very strange. Not clear overall context of email thread but needs clarification.

Will look over in more detail. Thanks

Thanks Valju- will do. Appreciated.

Average not too bad but sitting on a Loss- no problem admitting to that fact.

That’s life Homer. Win some lose some as they say!

All the best in your investing future

Homer- done my research been here a long time. Willing to take the risk. All these small bios are high risk.

Don’t need lectures from the ‘resident investment guru’ determined to look after his ‘ poor patients or children’

We can’t make up our own minds...we need minding!

NOT!!

It’s real looney tunes behaviour by some bitter twisted ‘investors’ with an agenda.

But that’s AIM and that’s AIM bulletin boards!!

You have to be careful out there.... spivs, spoofers etc.

It really goes to highlight the characters that inhabit these AIM bulletin boards.

CAUTION IS THE WORD!!! Be very careful of some posters and their agenda!!!

Why post all these links now- why not a few weeks ago???

It all smacks of an AGENDA!
