CAN'T YOU READ???? To: tony p (7954 ) From: CUBBY Friday, May 21 1999 6:01PM ET Reply # of 7973 Why don't you people listen to tony p ,he is stating the facts, he is 100% right---the end. You can sell your stock and then buy it back again if you want. you take the chance of paying more to get back in before ex-div date, when ever it is. FORGET ABOUT THE 17TH OR THE 20TH IT DOESN'T MATTER ANYMORE. It's so simple..you own TNRG one day before the ex-div date ...you get TIPS shares. To: Colin Cody (7952 ) From: tony p Friday, May 21 1999 4:29PM ET Reply # of 7974 Hi Colin, I don't want to get into a pissing match with you abt this div, but I can tell you for a fact that if you sell now you will NOT get the div. Yes the PR does have Mr Tilton saying to get the div you have to b a record owner on 5-20.He didn't say you could sell it after 5-20 and still get the div because unless you own the stk BEFORE the yet to be announced ex div date you are not entitled to the ddiv. Also, your div book is in error if it states that the ex date is 1 day after the record date. In almost 99% of the div's paid the ex date is 3 days BEFORE the record date. The ex date determines WHO is entitled to the div, not the record date. In this TNRG case the ex date is going to be way after the record date BUT still determines who is ENTITLED to the div. Big Bear-- re your post --if you sell tdy you better get the TIPS div-- not going to happen because you won't own the stk before the ex date. T A P-- I'm still waiting for you to acknowledge your incorrect post #7914. Need to buy three (3) days before ex date to get div. this is wrong, you need to buy anytime before the ex date.Example, if the ex date is 8 15 you must buy and hold the shs on or before 8-14. Pls acknowledge so at least that point will be cleared up. Tony People ..if you don't understand this you need help. Cubby
