I wonder how much of what is raised will be taken out by the organizers as "processing fees." lol
Imo it is much more likely that there will be more folks like me who didn't tender who are now going to tender this time around.
A big lol!
Yeah I noticed what you say about Bogus and Brack being pretty silent of late and that the baton at least for now has been passed on to some other folks who are as you say trying to take up a "collection."
Also, out of nowhere for the first time (Hello)Dolly is doing her share of posting-"Its so nice to have you back where you belong."
The funniest part is as you so aptly state is when the call goes out for donations fo the lastest venture to bring the world's attention to the matter;to use another famous song from the past, the best way to describe the overall reception for the call for actual money from all of the "thousands" of folks who live at he site, is "The Sounds of Silence."
It really is hard to understand why this is so difficult to get these funds-afterall by BOgus's count, there are tons of people with 10000, 25000, fifty thousand, 100000 shares, etc.
I would think it would be rather easy for all of these folks and the other multi thousands to reach into their pockes and to donate at least a few hundred if not a few thousand when they all know that according to Bogey, it is just a matter of time before the valuation of the company will be conservatively worth 600 BILLION dollars.
To coin one of your famous quotes, "It makes no sense to me."
Based on how few if any of the predictions rumor, speculation and gossip about Ocata have come true over the last few years, I just brush new ones aside because of the nearly 100% failure record.
The failure rate has happened so often in fact that when I hear/see a new one, one of the first things which comes to mind is Marvin Gaye's great hit from the late 60's, "I Heard it Through the Grapevine." lol
No more talk of the desperation two day sit-in demonstration field trip down to good old Ocata Headquarters in Marlborough.
I guess that the plea for this didn't go over too well at the other forum.
To play Devil's Advocate here, lets say that even though imo the chances are very remote, Gabelli did have some interest in getting involved in Ocata other than for arbitrage.
Imo since Mario is a worldwide trader and investor(which includes Japan), he wouldn't openly get involved now/make a higher bid because he would consider it tampering with an already existing bid on the table, which might make him look bad in the eyes of most of the investing world.
Thus in the way I see it, Mario would get involved only if this tender or succeeding ones fail and Astellas walks away.
jmho
Yeah its a great win all right.
Astellas now has 47% needed as opposed to only 36% after the first tender and are within am earshot of completing this deal.
Imo this song is much more representative as to Ocata's current plight. lol
No problem, Putten.
And in all honesty and fairness, I have been wrong many times in my assessments both in the market and decisions in my personal life before.
While it would be a great shock and surprise to me if Astellas or someone else raised the bid for whatever reason to $12 or even higher, nothing is 100% certain-thats why they call it "life."
Anyways, I would LOVE to be wrong about my thinking and to see a bdding war or something to make the stock price skyrocket, but im all honesty, I would have to pinch myself to make sure I wasn't dreaming and/or hadn't lost my mind. lol
Putten-in all due respect and as an options player for many years both selling them (covered calls and puts and buying them)(I usually sell them rather than buy them thse days), my experience has taught me that public sentiment is usually wrong, and to be a contrarian over the long haul is the best way to go.
In this case that would mean that since there are more puts buyers than call buyers in this instance, it means that the likelihood that the stock price will collapse at this juncture isn't that great.
I actually agreed that the stock price might collapse during this second tender if they didn't get the 50% plus one needed until I found out that Astellas couldn't simply walk away immediately.
With the new tender and already 47% needed in hand, imo Astellas feels pretty confident right now that they can get the other 3% needed and imo will up the price a little either before the deadline or afterwards to ensure this.
If on the other hand, the percentage decreases significantly from 47% when the shares are counted, you could get a selloff in the stock price and definitely if Astellas walks away from it all.
Personally though I am pretty confident that they feel that they get the 50% plus 1 needed this time around.
Speaking of options and why in general imo it is a good idea to be on the sell side rather than the buy side, as an example I made a nice score back in the beginning of 2015 when the Ocata was hot by selling some covered calls on both on the Nov. 10's and Nov. 12 1/2's which had insane premiums for the seller.
I collected every penny on what I took in obviously.
If you don't know already that about 2/3 of options bought end up being a total or partial loss for the buyer, then I suggest you do some dd.
It is akin to the seller being the bookmaker as opposed to the bettor in sports gambling-we all know who wins in the long run there. lol
Anyways hope above helps a little.
Lets just say that after the first tender, where I did tender if I recall about 80% of my shares, I untendered them right away after the tender failed and got them back within a day or two.
For reasons stated previously, I don't feel that stock price is going to tank immediately if this tender fails, and that Astellas will give it one last shot which might include bumping up the bid.
Yes I meant to say expiration date in February, which is in fact what I am doing.
Imo this letter which is being sent to shareholders which tells it as it is is going to convince a number of shareholders who haven't tendered their shares yet to do so.
Also, imo if Astellas has indicated/hinted to Ocata that there will be no increased bid and that they will simply walk away if this offer is not accepted, there should have been some mention in the letter also or sometime between now and the deadline.
You may not get the feeling from a number of shareholders that resistance/resolve is starting to fade, but imo lots of shareholders who are not members of these forums and who have not tendered yet, are frankly coming to the stark realization that it is in their best interests at this time to tender them and thus help to contribute to the remaining three percent to put the deal over the top.
You are correct-that was very poorly written on my part and makes no sense.
To be clear, what I meant to say is that imo a joint venture partial buyout MIGHT become more of a possibility if this tender fails.
Actually though I think it is more likely that Astellas will bump the price up a little either before this tender or after it fails before what you suggest would become more of a possibility.
IF the next tender doesn't go through, that is always a buyout because it MIGHT indicate to Astellas that that is the only alternative to pacify everyone.
For me the next vote is pretty crucial to all involved.
That said, with 47% of the shares needed in hand, imo the chances are pretty good that Astellas will prevail this time around for many reasons already cited.
Quote:
It's too late to get understanding after your dead you've made your grave. The dead know nothing, "It's not for them to know".
For me the only thing that matters and should matter is the strong likelihood that the company/stock known as Ocata will be "dead" as we know it very soon.
Also, I don't agree with all with the notion that the dead know nothing-imo a statement like that should be made only by someone who has been dead and returns to talk about it. lol
Actually imo the "word" dead can be more aptly applied to a thinking which totally brushes aside/ disegards all the data and statements made by the CEO himself which states that this company is "dead" without outside help which the company just received with this tender offer.
Reality may bite at times but refusal to accept it and/or to deny it is infinitely worse and to use an appropiate term, can lead to "grave" consequences for those who don't go with the follow but instead hold onto the past.
Quote:
"Life must be only understood backwards but must be lived forward."
I agree with this quote.
As applied to Ocata, imo it means that investors should understand why they invested in this company which included/includes Ocata being successful in this venture, but "living forward," must accept the fact that circumstances have prevented Ocata moving forward, and that it is an absolute necessity for outside help which has arrived;this mean means moving/living forward that one must accept reality as it is and not what one would want it to be.
Imo true humanitarians care that the success be achieved with the technology as quickly as possible, and that it is immaterial/irrelevant where this occurs, whether it be in the US or some other country.
By my way of thinking to say or think otherwise means that money is the overriding consideration and motivating force behind such a statement or thought.
Yeah-its a real victory all right when Astellas now has 47% of the shares needed after the last tender as opposed to 46% after the first-pretty fuzzy math if you ask me.
Who seems closer to reaching their goal, Astellas/Ocata management or shareholders?-lifeline please! lol
The freaking CEO is telling you that the company is strapped for cash and will be even more so when looking ahead, and yet there are people on the other forum who won't accept that and have actually become more defiant than ever in not surrendering their shares at $8.50 when no other company gives a rats ass about getting involved-wonderful philosophy to have as an investor. lol
"Why are the mature OCAT shareholders buying/holding with a bigger purpose and not tendering?"
The question/comment should be why are the mature OCAT shareholders SELLING and/or TENDERING their shares?
Answer-becasue they are in fact mature shareholders ,accept reality and don't live in a world of fantasy, delusions and who are unable to let go of their preconceived positive notions and opinions which haven't worked out and will never work out if Ocata continues this venture on its own.
Lancet/Smancet/Have a Gansett-all meaningless and irrelevant to the current offer on the table.
The prospects for this company on its own are very poor as the filing and letter today show in previous post.
If one wants to negate that and hold out for a higher bid than the ONLY bid of $8.50, go right ahead.
On the other hand, wise investors who haven't tendered yet will wake up and realize the realities of the situation which really exist today and come to grips that the "realities" created by their mind are in fact fantasies and delusions only and thus tender those previously untendered share, get over it, accept the fact that things didn't work out as they had hoped and move on!
This says it all and coroborates what some of us have been saying for a while about the present status of Ocata and its current prospects:

Re: Your Ocata Therapeutics stock; PROMPT ACTION REQUIRED
Dear Ocata Stockholder,
We are writing to you today because you hold shares of Ocata Therapeutics’ common stock.
Astellas Pharma has agreed to acquire Ocata Therapeutics in an all cash transaction valued at $8.50 per share and is committed to the completion of this transaction.
The Board of Directors of Ocata Therapeutics has unanimously approved the acquisition and recommends that stockholders accept the offer and tender their shares into the offer.
Why does the Board of Directors of Ocata unanimously support this deal and recommend that YOU TENDER YOUR SHARES? Why have all members of the senior management team (including our scientific founder, Dr. Robert Lanza) tendered their shares?
• Ocata’s current scientific programs are early in development and will require significant future capital to advance.
• On a standalone basis, Ocata lacks sufficient capital to advance many of its pre-clinical programs, and will therefore encounter challenges realizing value from these programs.
• Ocata’s Board of Directors and management team believe that raising future capital through the equity markets is
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
highly risky and would be dilutive to the stock price. There is no guarantee that Ocata will be able to attract sufficient capital at acceptable terms, particularly in current market conditions.
• Ocata is attempting to initiate dosing in its phase 2 trials, but it has been delayed in doing so. The delay could continue, and this could hinder Ocata’s ability to attract new capital.
• An inability to raise sufficient capital in the near term could result in a significant slow-down of Ocata’s operations, or jeopardize the continuance of Ocata’s operations.
• The company attempted to raise capital in December 2014, but was unable to complete a stock offering. The company did raise capital in June 2015, but had to issue potentially dilutive warrants to complete the financing.
• Conditions in the capital markets for small biotechnology companies have deteriorated significantly; the Wells Fargo Biotechnology Small Cap Index (BIOSC) has declined by 23.5% since the beginning of 2016, by 26% since the announcement of the Astellas transaction, and by almost 37% since Ocata priced its equity offering in June 2015.
• Prior to agreeing to the acquisition with Astellas on November 10, 2015, Ocata engaged in or sought to engage in discussions with other companies believed to be the most likely candidates to pursue a business combination with or acquisition of Ocata. Ocata did not receive any additional acquisition proposals. Additionally, since the announcement of the tender offer on November 19, 2015, no other proposals have been received from any other company.
• Ocata’s Board of Directors determined that, given the issues noted above and the overall execution risk associated with Ocata’s business plan, $8.50 per share is more favorable to Ocata stockholders than Ocata remaining an independent public company.
• $8.50 per share is 90% higher than Ocata’s share price on the day prior to announcement of the transaction.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
• The offer is 101% higher than Ocata’s volume-weighted average price for the 90 days prior to announcement of the transaction.
In order for the acquisition to be completed and for you to receive your cash, more than 50% of the outstanding shares must be tendered into the offer.
If less than 50% of the outstanding shares are tendered, the transaction will not close and you will NOT receive $8.50 per share in cash. Instead, you will continue to own shares of Ocata, the price of which was $4.46 on the day before the Astellas deal was announced. If the transaction is not completed, there can be no assurance that the Ocata stock price will remain at a range near that $4.46 price. The Wells Fargo Biotechnology Small Cap Index has declined by 26% since that day.
What do you need to do?
The tender offer is scheduled to expire on February 9, 2016 at 5:00pm EST.
If you hold your shares at a bank or broker and would like to tender your shares into the offer, you should promptly instruct your bank or broker to act on your behalf. If you hold your shares directly (paper certificates) and wish to tender your shares, please complete the enclosed Letter of Transmittal and return it in the enclosed envelope so that it arrives before the February 9, 2016 expiration date.
If you have questions about the offer, or are unclear about what to do, please contact the information agent: Georgeson Inc. at (866) 278-8941. If you have questions about Ocata’s perspective on the Offer, or are unclear about how to respond to the offer, you may contact InvestorCom at (877) 972-0090.
If you have already tendered your shares in the offer, you do not need to take any further action.

Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Any statements made in this communication that are not statements of historical fact, including statements about the consequences of failing to consummate the transactions and its potential impact upon Ocata, the expected timetable for completing the transaction and Ocata’s beliefs and expectations and statements about Astellas’ proposed acquisition of Ocata, including the timing of and closing conditions to the acquisition, and the potential effects of the acquisition on both Astellas and Ocata are forward-looking statements that are based on management’s beliefs, certain assumptions and current expectations and should be evaluated as such. These statements may be identified by their use of forward-looking terminology such as the words “expects,” “projects,” “anticipates,” “intends” and other similar words. Forward-looking statements include statements that may relate to Astellas’ or Ocata’s plans, objectives, strategies, goals, future events, future revenues or performance, and other information that is not historical information. Such forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, general economic, business and market conditions and the satisfaction of the conditions to closing of the proposed transaction. For a more complete discussion of certain of the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements with respect to Ocata, see the discussion of risks and uncertainties in Ocata’s annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, its most recent Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and other SEC filings. The forward-looking statements contained in this news release are made as of the date hereof, and neither Astellas nor Ocata undertakes any obligation to update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of future events, new information or otherwise, except as required by law.
Additional Information
This communication is provided for informational purposes only. No statement in this document is an offer to purchase or a solicitation of an offer to sell securities. Any offers to purchase or solicitation of offers to sell will be made only pursuant to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (including the Offer to Purchase, the Letter of Transmittal and other documents relating to the Offer) that Astellas Pharma Inc. and Laurel Acquisition Inc. filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on November 19, 2015. In addition, Ocata Therapeutics, Inc. (“Ocata”) filed a Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 with respect to the Tender Offer Statement on November 19, 2015. THE TENDER OFFER STATEMENT (INCLUDING THE OFFER TO PURCHASE, A RELATED LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND OTHER OFFER DOCUMENTS) AND THE SOLICITATION/RECOMMENDATION STATEMENT CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION THAT SHOULD BE READ CAREFULLY AND CONSIDERED BY OCATA’S STOCKHOLDERS BEFORE ANY DECISION IS MADE WITH RESPECT TO THE OFFER. Such documents have been made available to Ocata’s stockholders at no expense to them at www.ocata.com. In addition, you may obtain copies of these documents (and all other Offer Documents filed with the SEC) at no charge on the SEC’s website: www.sec.gov. OCATA’S STOCKHOLDERS ARE ADVISED TO READ THE SCHEDULE TO AND THE SCHEDULE 14D-9, AS EACH MAY BE AMENDED OR SUPPLEMENTED FROM TIME TO TIME, AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT OFFER DOCUMENTS FILED WITH THE SEC BEFORE THEY MAKE ANY DECISION WITH RESPECT TO THE OFFER, BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION AND THE PARTIES THERETO
Imo even if any other BP, private investor, or world government had some initial interest in buying Ocata, they would be turned off by all of the hounding with the the various emails, letters, phone calls, etc.complaints about the current offer in these forums and imploring these folks to buy the company, and would conclude that they want no part of a company where DESPERATION and BEGGARS rule!
As one of the few wise posters at the other forum concluded, NO means NO!!!
Lol-You made my day already!
Perhaps Hollywood should make some kind of James Bond thriller out of all of this-I am sure it would break all box office records.
I wonder who would play the various characters in this drama.
Re: the SEC, perhaps all of the "serious" charges that PW and Paul Wotton have been confronted to be so important that they actually move it up to 100th place in their list of priorities to read today as they chomp on the Dunkin Donuts choice of the day while they slosh it down with their cup of coffee! lol
I can hardly wait for the next exciting news and developments as we learn more about Wottongate and/or Astellasgate and as the story unfolds.
At the "Bogus/Brackattack site there is a little pep rally going on imploring folks who have tendered their shares to untender them and for those who didn't tender the first two times around not to cave now and tender them.
I sure hope for their sake that folks over there are not thinking/counting on me.
In the tender just completed I didn't tender any of my remaining shares because someone stated that Astellas couldn't walk away until February or March( I am still not sure which is correct)which imo could have caused a crash in the stock price if they had been able to walk away and did so;I was previously unaware of that.
Now that they are so close at 47%, and since I don't think there are interested suitors, I feel a lot safer now, and am going to hold on until deadline rather than sell in the Hail Mary hopes that there will be a higher bid between now and the deadline.
If that doesn't occur, I am going to tender my shares as I also want to do my part to put them over the top and get on with my life.
Again, I don't know if others in my position feel the same way-time will tell.
ps Speaking of the word "tender," once this is all over, I intend to take the proceeds of this deal once they settle and take my wife out for a nice "tender" Quarter Pounder Meal with Cheese Meal at McDonalds, oops I mean out to a fine restaurant for a very fine "tender" steak dinner. lol

Gawd, more nonsense and high grade BS straight off the little magic cell blog site thingy. HOLY COW, I mean total BS. The FBI, LOL !! REALLY???? Like stock Tender/mergere transactions are high on the FBI's list (you know, as opposed to pesky little things like fighting global terrorism and minor "stuff" like that??) HOLY COW, THAT is one list of total BS.
lol I know that I shouldn't make light of terrorism, but just the analogy and the manner in which you said it has me in stitches.
Then your implication in your post wasn't clear to me-sorry.
Lets just say that imo Astellas is in the driver's set at 47% and have ways of getting the remaining 3% needed.
You didn't offend me one iota.
You expressed an honest opinion which you have every right to do.
You may turn out to be right, and as a shareholder with my half of my original shares remaing, which are far from chump change, I hope that I/we do get more than $8.50-I am not counting on it though.
I am glad that you added the word MAYBE.
Just because you took the time to write, I am going to lower the chance that Astellas gets the deal done at $8.50 or a little higher to put them over the top from 99.9% down to just 99%.
Who are these other "big boys" and what effect will they have on the stock price?
In addition, imo this deal is airtight and will withstand any legal challenge from the other forum with the ideas proposed to get the deal overturned.
I would always bet on rather than against the big boys when it comes to matters like this one.
Imo the big problem wth a sit-in or other attempts to bring attention to it to the nation is that most people don't care and are worried about their own problems, etc. and would view any kind of a demonstration over it with a collective yawn.
What the fanatics at the other forum don't realize and as I have stated before, while Ocata may be the center of THEIR universe and believe that the earth should revolve around it rather than the sun, the vast majority don't view it that way and thats being kind.
The outcome of a high school football game between East Podunk High School and West Podunk High School is very meaningful to the players, parents and fans of those two schools but to very few others-imo it is essentially the same thing here with the Ocata/Astellas situation, Ocata's shareholders and most of the rest of the world.
Hail Mary attempts rarely work.
$8.50-you must have been thinking of some other company.
I agree that it looks like a 99.9% certainty deal will go through to Astellas with a slight chance of a little bump in stock price to finish off the deal.
$2.85???
I hope not. lol
A very, very wise and spot on post indeed.
No like life itself, the stock market isn't perfect, and sometimes things don't work out as we wish.
Sadly also, sometimes things are beyond our control and especially so in the stock market where money and greed are involved, the self serving human element can and does enter into the equation.
Also some of these big forces are big and are connected to other big powerful forces which renders the individual investor helpless.
Equally bad is the fact that when it appears things are unravelling as has been the case with Ocata for a while, some of the folks who stand to be adversely affected can and will go into denial mode and then come up with fantasy positive conclusions to try to shut the reality of the situation out.
Imo all of this talk about bidding wars, Mario, Astellas raising the bid substantially, etc. are all clear examples of that.
When that fails or even before, then we see another aspect of this stage 2 which in this case is trying to change things by going to court, writing letters to every BP and government on the face of the earth, etc. imploring them to buy Ocata and now taking over the Ocata Headquarters with a sit-in hopefully to bring national attention to the shareholder's plight.
None of this hardly ever works, and it is unlikely to work here either for the simple reason that it is a legal deal and in any cases, the forces to beat as stated, are just to strong and powerful.
As you say/imply also, Ocata is far from a lock in any event with all of the monetary and testing obstacles in front of it and not marketable product for probably five years,
Thus as you, Captain Kirk and farviewhill say, we should all be very grateful for this gift of $8.50 a share, count our blessings, just learn from this experience, move on and invest somewhere else where there is a good opportunity and in a company without a shady and corrupt reputation such as is the case with Ocata.
Personally I think some of those folks at that forum should do jail time for some the lies and misleading information posted.
I sure everyone reads this as it is all true and also filled with humor but humor based on the facts.
Thanks for making my afternoon!
Here we go with Brackattack's installment two of how to go about this sit-in venture at Ocata Headquarters-And I thought Bogus was delusional-this guy may have him beat. lol
ps Perhaps Brackattack can get Tom Brady to offer support, sit-in also, do a duet with Joan Baez and sing "We Shall Overcome"-he is a famous local boy who I am sure would draw attention, and it would be during the two week break until the SuperBowl-what the heck-they might as well give it a shot.
ATTENTION: Ocata Shareholders Let's Stage a Petition/Sit In
Attention Ocata Shareholders
I am thinking about organizing a petition at the Ocata headquarters in Marlborough, MA.
I need a show of hands who want to do this and want to come.
Lets get organized.
1) We need someone who lives in MA and who will be willing to run to Marlborough, MA and turn in this petition permit for us on behalf of Ocata Shareholders. Here is the link for the permit below. Fill it out and turn it in ASAP. Please email me at roland_bracken@yahoo.com this way I can post here and let everyone know it's been taken care of.
http://www.marlborough-ma.gov/gen/ma...dification.pdf
2) We need to set a date and how many days. Lets discuss this on this thread. Here are a few dates we can choose from:
A. Thursday January 28th to Friday January 29th and maybe the weekend.
B. Monday February 1st to Wednesday February 3rd
C. Thursday February 4th to February 5th and maybe the weekend.
3) We need a list of everyone who is willing to come and come for more than 1 day. I'm thinking a two day or three day sit in. If we get enough people we can do shifts of 12 hours so it's around the clock. Please email me at roland_bracken@yahoo.com if you are available to come.
4) We need a list of things to talk about if and when we are interviewed. Basically a cheat sheet we can all use if interviewed. Or maybe one common goal theme like the trial results from 2a and UK trials.
5) Everyone needs to bring or make there own signs to carry. I figure we can get the poster boards from a local Wal-Mart and the stakes from a local Lowes. We will need scriptions to go on the board. We can start posting the scriptions here on this thread.
6) Anything else you guys can think of that will get us organized quicker post here on this thread or email me at roland_bracken@yahoo.com
Bu wait, wait-didn't you see the news today during which they stated that science has been wrong all of these years and that the earth does not revolve around the sun but instead afround some Marlborough Stem Cell Company which goes by the name of Ocata! lol
