Yep. We're talking 13 or 14 year paper to get to that face value. Doesn't seem likely at such a low rate, unless there are very favorable redemption/conversion terms.

That's not that many years for debt. In fact, these are 20 year debentures (due 2019). Generally these things have a long term, since the company never intends to pay them off. They hope their stock continues to rise, and to force a conversion to equity.
