*'''{{oslaprov|Voting rights}}''': Unlike the {{gmsla}}, the {{osla}} contains a “[[best efforts]]” obligation to vote securities at the direction of the person who posted them to you. This is ''somewhat'' challenging given the [[title transfer]] nature of the agreement, but there you have it: the [[OSLA]] is a product of a more innocent age.

The 1995 OSLA is the predecessor to the 2010 GMSLA. It is not widely used these days, though there are still versions kicking around and we do need to know about it, though because ISLA has — a litle petulantly, in my humble opinion — decided to stop supporting netting opinions, you can expect those to die out in fairly short order. Here is the currently and probably now for ever, sketchy OSLA Anatomy, but unless you are looking at an existing agreement that can’t be changed, your much better bet is to look at the 2010 GMSLA and its pledgy cousin, the Pledge GMSLA], and study the anatomy of that document.
