RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Further to my TNSH listing ideaThere has not been any real trading in the Convert,So the vast majority of Holders (allmost all) have a cost base equal to the face value (par) Chances of the Convert going into default appear to be very slim at the moment and will be considered as nil if there were a Tender Offer,So the Holders are getting a nice interest of over5% and a remote chance to make more if the SP exceeds the Conversion Price .... So there would be no incentive imo to tender

There is nothing special about TH's convert - it can be easily replaced with others in any convertible portfolio. Now, I would not expect all the convert holders to convert since many are likely held in none institutional hands. But for those that are held in institutional hands they may well take you up on the offer.

SPCEO1 wrote: That is correct. But what I am talking about is a tender offer for those converts.
