Deason seeks to nominate full slate of directors to Xerox's board

(Reuters) - Activist Investor Darwin Deason on Monday sought to nominate a full slate of directors to Xerox Corp’s board at the company’s upcoming annual meeting.

The statement comes a week after Deason along with fellow activist investor Carl Icahn said the printer and copier maker should sell itself to one of its rivals or a private equity firm instead of the planned joint venture with Japan’s Fujifilm Holdings.
