Re: #200: @starbuxsux - Yea, that's the way I've always been told

I sold at the time as well, instead of waiting. Still, as we owned the stock during the window they discussed, I thought it at least remotely possible there might be something in it for us. Hence I read the crap they sent out and called.

Starbuxsux,

After 18 days of no response from the law firm, I called again yesterday. This time I did get an answer and, as I expected, only the attorneys get their fees. We shareholders get nothing monetary.

Ambulance chasers looking out only for themselves.

Re: #195: @starbuxsux - I have no idea...I sold after the acquisition

Thanks for the quick response.

I sold on the news as well. I saw little added gain in waiting and the added potential for the deal to fall thru.

I have a call in to the plaintiff's attorneys. I will post what I hear, if and when they call back. This seemed to be a logical starting place.

Re: #193: @starbuxsux - MAKO Stockholders Okay Merger With Stryker - Quick Facts

Starbux,

So today (7/17/2014) I got a proposed class action settlement document. I assume you and other former MAKO holders got this as well.

Aside from all the legal gobbledygook, I see nothing going to former shareholders except the obligation not to sue again. It seems the ambulance chasers are applying to the court for attorneys fees of $450,000. So we get nothing and the ambulance chasers get something and Stryker gets off for a de minimus payment.

Do I interpret this correctly?

TIA

MAKO Surgical Corp. Announces Definitive Agreement to Be Acquired by Stryker Corporation for $30 per Share in Cash

MAKO Surgical Corp. (Nasdaq:MAKO) today announced a definitive agreement with Stryker Corporation (NYSE:SYK), by which Stryker will acquire all of the outstanding shares of MAKO for $30.00 per share in cash, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.65 billion.
"The combination of Stryker's established industry leadership with MAKO's innovative products and people contains the power to positively transform orthopedics," said Maurice R. Ferré, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer. "It is with this in mind that MAKO's board of directors unanimously voted to recommend that MAKO's shareholders vote in favor of it."

"MAKO has established a compelling technology platform in robotic assisted surgery which we believe has considerable long term potential in joint reconstruction," said Kevin A. Lobo, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The acquisition of MAKO combined with Stryker's strong history in joint reconstruction, capital equipment (operating room integration and surgical navigation) and surgical instruments will help further advance the growth of robotic assisted surgery. Our combined expertise offers the potential to simplify joint reconstruction procedures, reduce variability and enhance the surgeon and patient experience. We look forward to welcoming the MAKO team to Stryker."

The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including MAKO stockholder approval.

In connection with this transaction, J.P. Morgan is acting as financial advisor and Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz and Foley & Lardner LLP are acting as legal advisors to MAKO.

MAKO Surgical Corp. (MAKO) is a medical device company that markets its advanced robotic arm solution and orthopedic implants for orthopedic procedures. The Company offers MAKOplasty, a restorative surgical solution that enables orthopedic surgeons to treat patient specific, osteoarthritic disease. MAKOplasty is performed using the Company's RIO Robotic Arm Interactive Orthopedic system (RIO). The RIO utilizes tactile guided robotic arm technology and patient-specific visualization to offer reproducible precision to surgeons. The Company offers knee MAKOplasty which, unlike conventional total knee replacement surgery, which requires extraction and replacement of the entire joint, enables resurfacing of one or two specific diseased compartments of the joint, preserving significantly more soft tissue and healthy bone of the knee. In February 2010, the Company acquired Z-Kat, Inc. (Z-Kat).
