Now we have a 13G and 13D. At least we know how many shares are still held in the Piper Jaffray account of the school. Looks like 3 generations of the Andreini family all have holdings. From the form it appears that John D. Andreini was Alan's father.

John,
I'd like your opinion on this. If you go to the bottom of that 8k it looks like CYOE are getting $10mil, but they are paying $4mil + 325k warrants (worth another $1/2 million at todays close) to redeem 100 of the 700 preferred convertible shares. $6 million net.

This one looks like it is getting out of control at least as far as dilution/financing is concerned. They should net $6 million but they still have 6/7ths of the JNC convertible outstanding.

Sunrise get 132k shares (warrants at $6 - already a nice profit), another 325k shares for JNC (warrants @ $6 - like Sunrise a nice profit if execised now). Another 2.5 mil shares set aside for the deal with the old Diana Corp holders (I'm not sure but I believe those warrants are set at $9).

On top of that I am not sure how many more new shares are issuable. I believe the outstanding 600 prefered could be another 6 million shares considering that they had 7 million reserved for the original 7 million. This filing is way to complicated for my tiny mind.

Why put 3+ million shares aside as collateral for a $10mil loan. Will they get the loan? Does the lender regard that CYOE stock is worth less than $3 a share - even at 100% collateral. As far as I know loans can be secured with as little as 10 to 20 % collateral if you have a decent business plan. Is CYOE only worth 30 cent a share?

Looking at it briefly and the complexity I can only believe that the Coyote is cooked! I would like your opinion however.
