LBHI wanted to dump the J shares on the ECAPs to end the lawsuit

not dumping when it is written in the prospectus that they will receive j shares if a trigger event occurs

its in their contract

You guys are way over thinking the J shares intent.

possibly but i dont think so

from the ecaps prospectus:

If a Trigger Event occurs and is continuing, the General Partner will, provided that (if required at such time) no relevant Supervisory Authority has objected, take all reasonable steps to cause the substitution of the Preferred Securities with depositary shares representing fully paid non-cumulative preferred stock issued directly by Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (“LBHI”). A Trigger Event shall occur (i) if LBHI is placed into bankruptcy, reorganization, conservatorship or receivership, (ii) if following any time when LBHI becomes subject to Relevant Rules, LBHI has capital adequacy levels which are less than the minimum capital adequacy levels which are imposed by the relevant Supervisory Authority or (iii) if, following any time when LBHI become subject to Relevant Rules, the relevant Supervisory Authority in its sole discretion, informs LBHI that it will not meet its minimum capital requirement in the near term.

Although LBHI has undertaken that, in the event that the Preferred Securities are substituted by depositary shares representing Substituted Preferred Stock, LBHI will apply for a listing for the Substituted Preferred Stock outside of the United States, there can be no assurance that a recognized stock exchange will agree to list any such Substituted Preferred Stock. In addition, the tax treatment for holders of Substituted Preferred Stock may be different from that for Holders of the Preferred Securities.
