As a short, wouldn't you owe the dividend on your borrowed shares though? In response to your challenge, I haven't seen this done before. I've seen a lot of firsts with MDBX though... As I hold a short position in MDBX, I actually hope that they get approval for the restricted share dividend, as I believe it would hasten a return of the pps to a reasonable value, and there would be no pps adjustment when the dividend is issued.
