Hi Katherine,

Thanks for your quick response.  Guess I will sell my shares then, since =
there doesn't seem to be a chance for moving any higher any time soon.

Thanks,
Ben

  Hi Ben,

  The action of a stock to be acquired will be controlled primarily by =
the terms of the deal. For example, take a look at the chart of VNX. =
This is a cash deal for $35/share announced in June. You can see that =
the stock gaps up very near the cash deal price and then hovers there =
indefinitely until the deal is closed. In another deal such as HAND, =
also announced in June, you'll notice a different price pattern. That is =
primarily because the deal is a stock swap in which owners will receive =
.09 shares of PALM for each share of HAND. The price action will =
therefore be controlled by arbitrageurs. The price action in HAND will =
essentially mirror the action in PALM and closely match the .09 to 1 =
share ratio set by the terms of the deal and will stay that way until =
the deal is closed.

    I have a question concerning how buyouts usually unfold.  PRWK =
announced yesterday that EK is buying them for $21.50 a share.  =
Yesterday PRWK traded between 21.18 and 21.24 with high volume of =
course.  Today it has traded between 21.20 and 21.24 so far.  Is this =
tight trading range normal and does it continue until the buyout is =
complete or will it return to more "normal" trading activity?

    Thanks
    Ben
