Here is same spreadsheet as of today's close. If EGAN price were to remain at $18 further into May and June, the
exchange eventually (in 23 days) becomes the lower point of the collar or $9.05 worth of EGAN. Of course our mileage will vary and I am counting chickens that are still unhatched.

Hi and thanks for your input. I have always wondered as an INFR shareholder why everyone says we have to absorb investment risk during the three days between the conversion date and the close. If for ex. today was the conversion day, and we received hypothetically .50 shs of egan for each infr sh. then tomorrow infr. should trade at exactly 1/2 of egans price. If egan goes down during the 3 days infr goes down and vice versa. The only way you get stuck is if egan starts to go down and you are not allowed to sell your egan shs as they have not been issued as of yet. I have read on yahoo that we can't sell and therefore are exposed during those 3 days. Do you know if that is true or not. Sorry for the long winded question when it is in fact pretty straight forward.
