a LEAP question: NAVR is gonna spin off NetRadio. NAVR trades LEAPS. If I bought a LEAP on NAVR, how would the spinoff be calculated? Would I have to exercise the LEAP (take the shares) before the IPO to get the NetRadio shares? Any idea how the CBOE would calculate that, if I didn't exercise? Because the "rule" is "owners of record on [date] which would not be LEAP holders. Only other deal that comes to mind is the T spinoff of LU 2 years ago. I wonder how that works.

I just checked, and no options on NAVR listed on the CBOE site. But I still have the question.
