Nic; I am no expert on this,however I was involved in one a few years ago, pink sheet that was supposed to be bought out and the way it was to work was as follows. The shareholders were to be given a choice of selling their shares at the price agreed to by the 2 co.'s involved or they could trade their shares for an equal dollar value of shares in the purchasing co. Of course the purchasing co. would have to be a publicly traded co. for that to work. Again that was that deal which fell through. Lucky for me I sold most at a nice profit before the deal fell through. But I would think that their could me many different ways to structure a deal such as this. Also the individual shareholder would have to check the tax implications on such deals before deciding which route to take. But this is only wishful thinking for TIVU at this time.
