Zeev, Surelock.

How do you know what a floorless preferred is ? I know it seems like a stupid question to you learned people, but I am not 100% sure what your talking about.

Would this be referred to as a floorless preferred ? :

The Company has authorized 10,000,000 preferred shares, $0.001 par
value per share, to be issued in series with attributes to be determined by
the Board of Directors. A series of 2,000,000 shares of Class A Preferred
Stock has been authorized by the Board of Directors. The Class A Preferred
Stock, all of which are currently outstanding, has the following rights,
privileges and preferences:
* Each share is convertible into five shares of common
stock at a conversion price of $0.05 per share.
* Each share is accorded five votes on any matter
submitted to the stockholders of the Company.
* These shares are assignable, subject to compliance
with any applicable securities laws, rules and
regulations.
* Ownership of these shares vests on issuance, and they
are not subject to cancellation.

Zeev,
<TMSR>
From their press release describing the financing:

"During the period commencing on the date 90 days and ending on the date 300 days after the June 9, 1999, the conversion
price will be the lesser of (a) $24 or (b) 88.89% of the average of the lowest 10 closing bid prices per share of the company's
common stock during the 25 trading days preceding the conversion date."

My thought on first glance was that holders may orchestrate
weakness in the stock after 90 days in order to maximize the
number of common
they would receive. It seems, however, that the small size of
this financing, and the restrictive terms on conversion would
not in itself lead to a lower share price.
Thanks again for your informative comments.

Zeev Hed,

Do you have a site that tracks these VC deals.

It would appear to me that you can beat these guys at the own game. Especially if you can buy put options which would not only lessen your loss (provided you don't put all your money in the puts), but could also provide for means for a greater short term profit (percentage wise).

Thanks.

Kurt
