Bob,

From recall, the date is August 2nd, 6 months after Ontak's formal approval. Each share of Ontak is worth approximately $.23 per share in cash or Ligand stock at that time. A fairly significant dilution--therefore I expect good news from Ligand to help pump the stock for the base period preceding the 2nd of August.
