George,

It is Bryan and not Bryon. Just wanted to clear that up.

I agree with you that they spent ample amounts of time looking at the deal from all of the different angles. But the fact remains that everyone else does not like the deal.

Look today, PDP closed down today at 30 7/8(down 1 1/8). Too me, this stock is not responding like it should be. Shouldn't the stock be going up or at least holding somewhere above its price but it is only up a $1 from the day of the announcement. I know that you are going to say that the discount from the implied value of 35(5x7) is just the time factor but I disagree. They are going to close the deal by the end of June (2 months is not that long).

I mean the way that the leaders of the companies have been talking about the deal, then it is a forgone conclusion that the deal is going to go through. I mean they are announcing what they are going to do for the next few years and all of that. So wouldn't the street buy that and at least take the stock up somewhere near the implied value. Also, just think about the fact that in the annoucements they made, they quoted a $40.25 a share for PDP. Does not look like it is going to get anywhere near there.

Just my thoughts.

Bryan
