Hey Rob,warrants and rights are generally used to sweeten private placements, these kinds of deals are not unusual in junior mining and oil companies. It is more unusual to issue rights to shareholders one example I was involved in, a few years ago, was Bearcat Oil and Stampede Oil. In that case the rights were priced too high and were never in the money. They did however create a lot of interest.

I have the impression that 'real' companies do not like to go this route, though for the life of me I don't see why long term shareholders should not be rewarded for their foresight and willingness to risk capital to the benefit of the company.
