Because we (I) don't understand why there would be a restriction like that applied to settlement terms as you are stating. While I cannot say you are wrong, my rationale tells me that what you are suggesting (cash only settlement) makes no sense.

In addition, there is also the JPM/Lehman/Barclays case where the BK judge allowed a settlement which was BOTH cash and securities! This was the basis for MY prediction that any settlement between WAMUQ and JPM would be completed via a cash payment AND a share swap. Here is a reference for you...

NEW YORK (Reuters) - A U.S. bankruptcy judge approved a settlement calling for $1.27 billion (£857 million) in cash plus securities with a face value of $5.7 billion to be transferred to Barclays (BARC.L) in connection with its purchase of the core U.S. brokerage business of Lehman Brothers Holdings.


Here is the link for you...

So, Cash is NOT the ONLY way....

You said:
"[T]here is absolutely no way that in a lawsuit that it can be settled via a stock swap. [C]ash only. Cash, not stock."

Hope this helps clarify this issue for the board.
