Help me here, I don't understand why we're not trading near $45.....

NEXTLINK COMMUNICATIONS INC (78-1/2, prior to open) said it would
buy CONCENTRIC NETWORK CORP (30, prior to open) for about $2.9 bln
in stock to expand its offerings beyond voice services. Concentric
shareholders will receive $45 in Nextlink stock for each share,
subject to a collar, Nextlink said in a statement. That represents
a 50% premium to Concentric's stock price. Under the deal, if
Nextlink shares rise above $90.91 a share, Concentric shareholders
will receive 0.495 share of Nextlink stock for each Concentric
share. If Nextlink stock falls below $69.23, Concentric
shareholders will receive 0.65 share of Nextlink.


It says we're to get $45 worth of Nextlink stock for each share of CNCX. As I see it the collar is the conversion factors of .495 should Nextlink go above $90.91 and .65 should Nextlink fall below $69.23, which still gives us $45 per share between those prices. So Why are we still trading below $40. Duh.
