Not me. Disappeared into a black hole.

On what day is/was the LLY price determined?

Me either. Part of the reason for the delay is, I think, the mechanics of the election offered to AMEV shareholders. I was involved in one of these in a similarly structured transaction. While the computation is relatively straightforward in determining who elected all cash, all LLY stock or part cash/part stock, if the terms of the transaction imposed ceilings on the aggregate amount of cash or stock that could be paid/issued as consideration in the transaction, the shareholders' elections are subject to pro ration. Then, AMEV shareholder accounts have to be whacked up between cash and stock, these proportions communicated to DTC and then to DTC participants. That takes some time. Agreed it doesn't need to take this long. But then too, AMEV option holders options have to be converted, etc. etc.

Should be soon....

Cash and LLY shares showed up today. I elected all cash and received cash (c. 62%) and LLY shares (c. 38%), so that reflects the pro ration factor.

Aside from the general aversion on the SI BT threads to big pharma, any one have any strong thoughts on LLY, one way or the other? (I guess "le weekend" helps, but probably too small in size to make its impact felt.)
