I have only an adequate knowledge of the previous Bankruptcy Proceedings of both WMI and Lehman.
I did not hold WMI Commons on the Effective Date, and I did not “ opt in “ to the POR.
Per the Seventh Amended POR the Equity Interests received 25 % of the 200 M in new Common Stock. That is 50 M. The exchange was approx 27 old Commons for 1 new Common.
The value of the new Common Stock depended upon one’s average of the old Commons. If your average was .02 x 27 = .54.
The new Commons opened up in the .50 range and eventually increased in price to $ 4.00 before slowly declining until WMIH merged with COOP to utilize $ 6 B in NOLs.
The WMI POR was complicated and included Run Off Notes and a Liquidating Trust - from which the new Common Shareholders may have received additional monies.
