Please inform me how TLC shareholders are going to get screwed. Isn't the deal price still $33 regardless of the number of shares of MAT involved ? I see an arbitrage opportunity increasing in it's attractiveness as a short term 25% return investment now increases to a 34% (unleveraged) return as TLC shares dive on light volume during this period of uncertainty. That said, there is the potential for a surprise with Monday's earnings announcement. Softkey has cooked the books in the past. The April 25 call options are about 2 each. Let's see where they are a month from today. When is the road show scheduled ?
