Al, the full details of the rights plan is very lengthy but in effect it applioes to every holder of stock can be issued a right to purchase another share at a 50% discount with the exception of any hostile party who holds 20% of the stock or more. The discount price seems to depend on the number of shares in the hands of the shareholders (not making the bid) and is calculated on the average closing price for the past 20 trading days but it would be about 50% of that price. The result of course is that the hostile buyer either has to negotiate terms or be prepared to buy a lot more shares in order to get a controlling interest.
