I don't think so Bill. You'll have until the day before Ex Dividend date to buy and get the spin off.

That date is normally set by Nasdaq, sometimes by NASD.

I really don't see any way, assuming that the company has advised NASD of the spin off, which in fact is treated as a dividend, that they will set an Ex date months before the pay date.

Until it shows up on the Other Portal Daily List, nothing is going to get spun off and record date is meaningless.

"The "distribution date" of the spin-off dividend or shares of OptiCon will be announced when our registration statement with SEC is active and when NASD provides the trading authorization and a trading symbol. We expect the approximate "distribution date" to be in the beginning of the second quarter of 2007."

All Hathaway shareholders of record at the close of business on December 19, 2006 will be eligible to receive one share of OptiCon Systems, Inc. common stock for every two shares of Hathaway common stock owned as of the "record date" on the "distribution date."
