Zeev,
Can you translate what the following prospectus means. To me, it seems that some of the Convertible holders are registering in order to sell shares. To do so, they'd have to convert at $47 a share to have the privilege of selling for 14 or 15. Obviously, this is nonsense. ... and my interpretation is wrong.
In advance, thanks.
Ian.
