Plan of Arrangement "Options"
Hey guys, I must be missing something but I just got the Plan of Arrangement document but am pretty unclear of what the difference between the options is.
Option 1: Tax Deferral Election
To receive 2.23 shares of Nutrien Ltd for each share of Agrium Inc tendered.
Option 2: Non-Tax Deferral Election
To receive 2.23 shares of Nutrien Ltd for each share of Agrium Inc held.
Is this just saying that Option 2 will trigger a tax event if Agrium is not held in a Tax-defferred account?

DoubleOhDiv, that has also been my understanding. Therefore my take is that Option 1 is the best way to go unless you seem some other tax arrangement that might pushback any applicable tax.
