Quote: For anyone really worried about a TWA 2.0 scenario at JB, take a look at the restrictions that Icahn agreed to in order to get his two board seats. Looks like he's can't propose selling material assets, can't attempt to gain additional board seats, can't attempt to remove existing board members, etc. I think our board saw him coming and put limits on his involvement to make sure he can't dismantle us the way he did TWA.

Of course, he may have some entirely new tactics up his sleeve, but it does look like he'll have enough influence to be a thorn in the ELT's side, but not enough to take control of anything.

Just my interpretation, I could be way off.
Stop thinking like an airline pilot and start thinking like a corporate raider: fairly easy to control more shares indirectly via other entities, and/or coordinate with other shareholder blocks to effect whatever strategy you want to max out your share value short-term
