Please understand that I'm not saying that's how it will be...but the whole settlement is still a mystery...so its possible, that the terms might call for $xx/share and then the current common shares would stop trading...sort of like when you have a bond and its called...one day you have an investment worth xx and the next day you have xx in your account, but no negotiable instrument. Commons are negotiable, can be bought and sold. Depending on the structure of the new reorg, its possible that this might be the route taken.
There are pros and cons to both scenarios, the biggest pro/con with the first scenario is that you get your money right away, but have no investment in the reorg.
The biggest pro/con with the second scenario then is the opposite...you might reap bigger rewards if you have the patience to see the reorg grow, but your shares would be worth less immediately than they might be in the first scenario.
