The price is .7 shares of LU

.7 LU may have looked good when ASND was at $23 recently, but LU & ASND were prohibited from discussing merger by pooling of interest at that time as I understand it. My calculator gives your conversation rate (.7) a value of $54 per ASND share. Why would Mory accept that when ASND has traded above that as recently as July? I don't believe that the answer can be that LU & ASND previously negotiated the conversation rate for reason given above. On the heels of the CIEN-TLABS debacle, I hope that ASND negotiates a minimum dollar amount as well as a conversation rate to LU stock in the deal although my guess is that the street has already factored the ASND merger (possibility) into LU price to some extent. IMHO
