Line 25:
********** No, it was not. It was shown that Kaito was trying to stop them but it was clearly shown that the Company was working with Linderman. Candice and Thompson, both Company employees, were explicitly shown to be aware of Linderman's plans and perfeclty happy with them. Bob was most likely in on it to, but avoided mentioning that around Nikki and Nathan so as not to implicate himself.
****** The Twelve founded the Company. This was made clear in 1x20, ".07%", in the scene in the diner where Matt reveals the connection in the Burnt Toast diner to HRG, in 1x21, "The Hard Part," when Nathan and Thompson discuss the plan to blow up New York, and in 2x10, "Truth and Consequences," when flashbacks to Adam, Kaito and Victoria Pratt show that they were all heavily involved in it at that time. Kaito eventually left The Company, as far as we know, and Bob rebooted it after Linderman died and he took over, but they were very much in on the plan to destroy New York.
* It may also have something to do with the fact that Sylar is so powerful that he's a walking, talking [[The Lord of the Rings|One Ring to Rule them All]]: while he's running around killing people, it's easy for everyone to agree that his continued existance is a Very Bad Thing. But once the company gets their hands on him, the shear amount of power Sylar represents is too tempting, and they end up keeping him around in the hopes that they'll figure out what makes him tick.
* As I write this, Season 3 has just begun and we now know ''exactly'' why the Company wanted Sylar alive. Well played!
** Or rather, why a certain individual ({{spoiler|Angela Petrelli}}) with a lot of political pull wants to keep Sylar alive.
