Hi Keith,

Re: ......the conversion price was adjusted (and potential dilution increased), but I'm not sure why. Anyone know?

The buyers demand a better deal when the price of the common falls. Why should they invest if the offering is already underwater?

Re: Also, why was Mirant even involved in this offering if they received none of the proceeds?

Sshhhhhh, you're not supposed to notice that. <g>

The conversion rate in the supplement 424 is identical to the original 14.7167, according to the filling. However, they made a pretty gross error in calculating the number of common shares corresponding to the notes sold. The conversion rate they used is 67.95. Somebody ought to tell them.
