Is the exchange 1.55 glg for each share of fgx? I just read an article saying 1.33, see below. ========================================================== Under the agreement, Glamis is offering to exchange 1.33 of its its common shares and 1 share in a new exploration company ExploreCo for each issued Francisco share. Francisco will transfer to ExploreCo C$25 million in cash, certain early-stage Nicaraguan exploration assets and a 2 percent net smelter return royalty on its Guatemalan projects outside the Marlin area. Glamis will retain the right to acquire a 5 percent stake in ExploreCo. The deal is expected to be completed on May 15. The companies said their boards had both unanimously approved the deal. If Francisco receives a superior offer, it will pay Glamis a break fee of C$8.6 million. The companies said the transaction would immediately add to net asset value and that recoverable gold reserves would increase by about 34 percent on a per share basis.
