MrGreenJeans:

Here's a question about LEAPS I haven't found an answer to yet:
Suppose I go long some AMAT 2001 30 calls. Some terrible quarters come along and AMAT common goes down to say $15. GE steps up to the plate in 2000 and buys AMAt lock-stock-and-barrel for $25. What happens to my LEAPS? Does it matter how GE paid for AMAT?

I'm not by any means suggesting this is a possibility...
