Yahoo's annual meeting takes place on August 1, after months of the company being a fixture in the minds of its investors over an aborted takeover attempt by Microsoft and a subsequent partnership with Google on search advertising.
The battle for control of the company lined up as a choice of proxy cards for shareholders. Either keep the current group of directors in place, or opt for a new slate of directors proposed by investor Carl Icahn.
But Reuters noted a new option, albeit one that may be harder to accomplish. Jackson, who runs the Ironfire Capital hedge fund, thinks a mixture of old and new will be a worthy compromise.
Jackson's slate includes Yahoo co-founder and current CEO Jerry Yang among the existing directors he would want retained on a new slate. Current chairman Roy Bostock is not in Jackson's list.
Four Icahn slate nominees: Adam Dell, brother of PC magnate Michael, Edward Meyer, John Chapple, and Lucian Bebchuk, earned a place in Jackson's choices. Even more attention to this group will happen on Tuesday, when Yahoo reports quarterly earnings after market close.
