As one of the few shareholders that voted yes - the original run on deposits was entirely irrational.  HCG never really needed even the first tranche of Berkshire equity because it had already made the deals to sell enough of its mortgage portfolio to pay off the HOOPP loan.  But the Berkshire investment brought back depositors and allowed HCG to lower deposit rates.  If this rejection causes depositors to get irrational again and HCG has to raise deposit rates even a little bit, the hit to earnings will be worse than the dilution.
I hope that doesn't happen.
