Board announces a stock owners rights plan.

siliconinvestor.com

Common owners will be issued rights, one right for each share they own on 8/9/02. This right gives them the ability to purchase INSP preferred. The rights are not excersisable unless there is a takeover or other event in which an outside entity attempts to buy over 15% of INSP's outstanding shares.

Does Jain have to wait until the entity attempts to buy over 25% of the shares or can he buy up to 24.99% of the shares before the rights plan kicks in?

Regardless, if there is an attempt, and the rights become excersisable then will these rights trade on the open market (like a warrant?) or would the would-be entity just get a watered down percentage of the company?

Unclear to me is whether or not the owners of the rights would need to come up with additional capital to protect their 'rights'. I wouldn't think so, but...
