'fung_derf' Re: Now you do realize there are ways to do these things normally without diluting the heck out of us, right? There is no dilution when shares are used to purchase the assets in a joint partnership. Capital structure is always maintained in a partnership. No dilution exists. Should a partner cease to become a "partner," the other partners have a right to purchase the other partners partnership interest. ------------------------------ Re: Can you think of any ways? Same answer as above. ---------------------------- Again - your question is vage and needs more clarity.
