Thank you very much Jon. I do have another question or two.

Because these bonds (like the vast majority of bonds) are NOT "zero coupon bonds" -- they promise to pay an interest payment each six months throughout the life of the bond, and then a re-payment of the principal (and, the last interest payment, too) on the final maturity date.
So, in other words, the G* bonds are NOT zero coupon bonds - and by not being so G* promises to pay semi-annual interest, payment of which, because of the co.'s condition in the future, may be delayed until near the maturity date - right?

If G* cannot make their final interest and full principal payment at the specified date is a bondholder left holding the bag entirely?

Thanks again,
Jeff Smith
