it is a mess.  this may result in a legal battle regarding whether or
not Charles Wang is an "interested director" for the purpose of the
merger.  in a nutshell, there are laws that govern the whether an
interested director (e.g., those that have a personal/substantial
financial interest in a transaction) can vote.

even if Wang didn't vote, "his" 4 board members still still had the
majority vote because 1 board member abstained.  which begs the
question - what vote is needed under the bylaws to approve a
transaction of this magnitude?  it seems like the bylaws would require
a supermajority of sorts, or the approval of both founders, or
something . ..

anyway, Mullaney should have been more careful.  but when somebody is
"donating" a $500,000k plus salary, maybe you learn to bite your lip.
you "bury a hatchet" buy buying somebody a beer, not by approving
board members that can potentially merge out your charity.
