I said give me the cash

 

[ZZZZZ]

Damn. I bailed out around $13.00 about a year ago. I got tired of wafting for... a buyout like this.

18.50 canuckistani is what I read.

Same thing is happening to Golden Star. A CCP company is on it's way to buy out another African Gold Junior. Planned to completely buy out Golden Star for $3.91 I believe.

PS. Not often you get so lucky with these things so that's why diversification is key. I bought GSS at $2.50 a share a few months back.

They offer a choice because some folks don't want to trigger capital gains taxes.

yep EOA, you are correct,
after your comment went back and reviewed it further



If you are a registered Shareholder, you will receive any cash Consideration in Canadian dollars, unless you exercise the option to elect, in your Letter of Transmittal, to receive any cash Consideration in another currency. In order to take advantage of this option, a registered Shareholder must return his, her or its Pretivm Share certificates or DRS Advice(s) representing Pretivm Shares, along with a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal electing to receive cash Consideration in another currency, by the Effective Date. If you are a non-registered Shareholder, you will receive any cash Consideration in Canadian dollars unless you contact the intermediary in whose name your Pretivm Shares are registered and request that the intermediary make an election on your behalf. If your intermediary does not make an election on your behalf, you will receive any cash Consideration in Canadian dollars. If you take advantage of the election described above to receive any cash Consideration in a currency other than Canadian dollars, the exchange rate that will be used to convert payments from Canadian dollars into such other currency will be the rate established by Computershare Trust Company of Canada on the date the funds are converted, which rate will be based on the prevailing market rate on the date the funds are converted. The risk of any fluctuations in such rates, including risks relating to the particular date and time at which funds are converted, will be solely borne by the Shareholder electing to convert its Canadian dollar consideration into another currency. Computershare Trust Company of Canada will act as principal in such currency conversion transactions
