If thats Peters main issue, I dont think we have any major issues at all then. I would rank financing the mega farm much more important of an issue.

The 10-Q said we will get an information statement. The weird thing is, they are asking for approval which may suggest an 8-k could suffice.

Here is one example of an 8-k. Issued the same day as the press release. Announcement was Nov 8. Record Date was Nov 18. Distribution date (payment date) was Nov 30.

I still think they won't give us the ex-date. Which should be one day after the payment date. According to this document. But we'll see.

The procedures for stock dividends may be different from cash dividends. The ex-dividend date is set the first business day after the stock dividend is paid (and is also after the record date).

The reason why they won't give us the ex-date is because it's none of their business. Exchange rules set and determine the ex-date.

Anyway, what I wanted to say is, if it's an 8-k then we probably have 3 weeks until the ex-date. Big rally towards $5 at least in a short amount of time. Let's see how many people really want that dividend :-)
