In Favour

400k shares VOTED IN FAVOUR OF DEAL AS PROPOSED GLTA
Comment by ChupacabraBueno on May 02, 2016 10:28am
421k more shares VOTED IN FAVOUR OF DEAL AS PROPOSED GLTA. A bird in the hand is worth tow in the bush. If the market thought BNK was worth more than the deal price of $2.20 it would not be trading near a 15% discount now. Take your money and run - to another similar opportunity if you can find it. -GTLA

Chupa..a favourable vote is all but guaranteed and BNK will go for 2.20 this summer. Still a decent arbitrage play even at 1.92.

guaranteed???? You're kidding right?
Comment by werdnapk on May 02, 2016 10:08pm
Yes, guaranteed. Who's kidding? You're kidding yourself if you don't think this is guaranteed.

I wouldn't quite say guaranteed, but pretty close IMO. The evidence just supports a successful bid. Insider purchases, firm oil price, strong historical collaboration all strong evidence that the deal goes through.

According to TD Waterhouse the top near-term risk specific to Bankers is: Transaction completion risk. -In other words, the Geo-Jade deal not being completed is about the worst thing that could happen to BNK from their perspective. I think most shareholders agree. An optimist might say that a FOR vote is guaranteed. I'm a realist myself, but I'm sure most people on the buy side of BNK ...more

Right on! Plus you throw in the nebulous gyrations in oil price and frankly I'd just as soon tender. There's plenty of other mid cap names to put your money on if one remains bullish on oil. Most PM's are very practical, they don't have a love affair with any stock, so they will tender for sure because they don't have a firm grip on oil either.

How/Where do I vote? I am a shareholder of BNK.

Walmart
Comment by braincloud on May 03, 2016 1:56pm
If Walmart didn't work out for you then the next best place to look is on the company web site. Top of the screen. You'll need the CONTROL number from the package you received in the mail. You will have the option of giving your proxy to either French or Urch and you can vote in favour or against the circular.

What a condescending jackass. Something never change.
Comment by ChupacabraBueno on May 04, 2016 11:32am
They will (more likely already have) mail you detailed instructions with a "CONTROL NO" that identifies you. You can go to www.proxyvote.com & enter your control number & the submit button, then click FOR & the submit button, and you're done. Or you can vote by telephone, by mail, as detailed in the letter.
Comment by werdnapk on May 04, 2016 11:49am
If you plan on voting yes, you can just do nothing.  You only need to worry about how to vote if you want to vote against the takeover.

Telephone takes about 30 seconds to complete...
