Tim, there is not much sophistication involved. Take the more complicated case of selling calls. If you own shares of Palm through your COMS ownership and Palm is at $75 and you want to cash out at this price, sell a deep in the money call for a price close to $75 and an expiration date a little after your distribution date. This way you will actually get more than $75 for your stock because of the time premium of the call you sell.
