While we haven't discussed the takeover, buyout issue much, I reiterate it's an option management and large institutional shareholders would not oppose if a "fair" price was offered. I don't know what "fair" is necessarily but I get the impression anything under $150 would not get serious consideration. That is based on $1.50ish sell down of E/A, Triceratops, PPL 236 and future prospects. They simply feel they would be giving away too much. Ironically, the lower pps increases the likelihood of a complete buyout.
"....anything under $150 would not get serious consideration.". I have to say Invest, $150 is low!!! Given all of the recent data and the prospects let alone known assets in E/A and T2 anything under $300 is a steal for a SM. I cam not imagine the BOD or large institutions would be holding out for only $50 mor than the high they never sold at. If there is a buyout (I can not believe there will not be) it may start at $150 but will not end there.
