MarginMan, The wording in the press release was sort of confusing. Did you read it as 1/10,000 for $55. Or as 1 whole for $55? I read as #2. My math says: 70,000,000 shares outstanding times 1/10,000 = 7,000 Preferred shares. 7,000 times $55 = 385,000 which becomes worth $110 or $385,000 more that somebody has to pay. Is this right thinking? If so the "poison pill" ain't much to swallow for a serious acquirer.
