QUESTION: What is a spin-off?

ANSWER: A "spin off" allows a subsidiary or division of a corporation
to become its own company via a new stock offering. Shares in the new
company are typically issued to the parent company's existing
shareholders on a pro-rata basis. Spin-offs can also be executed
via a leveraged buyout (LBO), management buyout (MBO) or employee
stock ownership plan (ESOP).

*** EXAMPLE: See the Sep. 14 New Registration Statement (10-12B) filed
by the "New D&B Corp"
