I didn't mean that it is always the case that a lower share price benefits note holders, I just meant it for notes with certain terms like VWAPs(Volume Weighted Average Price) with discounts(toxic notes).
13G's are filed any time a non-insider is issued more than 5% of the common stock.
9.9% is not arbitrary in that if it were 10% or higher, there would be a form 3,4,5 filed and not a 13G. A 13G is an alternative to a 13D which has more reporting requirements. 9.9% is commonly seen with 13D's and 13G's
Without looking at the filings again, I'm not even sure what shares we are actually dealing with right now. I have to look again, it's been a while now. I'll be going through the filings tonight.
