Dale--In the floorless convertibles I have seen the holders don't play for a mere dollar or two. They tear the company apart. Check PNDA or ZITL among others. The classic assumption I have seen is that the holders will short for the amount of the convertible. I don't know why they would. I would short every share I could get. As the holders start converting, diluting the stock, and hammering the price down, a massive short is all the better. Since the company has delivered control of the share price into the holders hands, why not? All the Best Druss
