Re: [802SEC] Indemnification memo



While some additional example besides consultants could be added to make it clear that we aren't meaning to pick on them, I think we should remember that these are examples - they should be realistic and give people a more concrete idea of the principle they exemplify, but they are not meant to be complete. I don't think we could come up with a complete set.
