I think every few weeks another one will mature and start to be sold into the market. The lower the share price goes, the higher the number of shares will need to be issued to pay off the convertible that's about to mature.
Eventually,m it becomes a self fulfilling prophesy, as the share price goes lower and lower, the number of shares needed to cover it gets higher and higher.
