Rd, There's a Co called Cymer that did the same thing.
When the stock was @ 90, the debt holders locked in their puts and made a fortune seeing it all the way down to 15.
Cymer is now back up to 25, but the big bucks were made.
How can we get in on this deal with Amzn?
If there are long term puts, I'll mortgage my house, to get in!

Bob,

I got a call yesterday from AMZN's finance dep't stating that the prospectus would be put online on Edgar. I looked all afternoon and this morning for it. Nothing.

I called AMZN finance this morning and was told that the only thing that will be put online on Edgar for the time being is the 8-K that contains the press release.

I tried to pressure, stating that the terms of the prospectus were quite important. Such as the face amount, the interest rate, convertibility, etc. I was told that this information would be filed on Edgar "in pieces" as the loan was placed. I also was told that this could take several months. In other words, nothing will be filed until someone actually subscribes. We won't know the terms until then.
