I'm not sure that the "instant value" is quite as one sided as you indicate. LGND was going to get something "extra" in the LLY deal. It was either 1 1/2% in royalties (5 or 6 years from now), or a product to sell this year (and we will see if the product adds value in addition to cash). Thus, to get the 1 1/2%, they had to give up ONTAK, which may generate significant income over the next 5-6 years (and thereafter).
