RE:BAM Bid For BPY Vette, can you confirm this language from the press release means unit holders will have one of three choices:
Subject to pro-ration, BPY unitholders would have the ability to elect to receive, per BPY unit, $16.50 in cash, 0.40 Brookfield Class A shares, or 0.66 of BPY preferred units with a liquidation preference of $25.00 per unit. So, one could elect to take the cash, the portion of the BAM.A share or the portion of the BAM.PR.A share. It's obviously not a combination.
I assume if one had mutliple holdings, e.g. TFSA / RRSP one could make different choices. Also, the BPY press release seems to suggest that even within an account an investor could split their holding into more than just one of the available options.
Am I reading these correctly?
Thanks,
