    If the benefit is at $2 per share and you truly believe that WBC share price will be higher than 21.50 in a few weeks, you can buy replacement shares now and offer the current shares to Westpac knowing at a 10% discount, Westpac would probably buy the lot from you. I would only gain $1.50. I would offer my shares back at a 0% discount without expecting them to buy from me. But in case they decide to buy at 21.50 rather than buying on the market later then I would get about $3 per share. That's not bad. I would immediately buy back the shares when they pay Within a few days, WBC is not expected to go very much. This market might even go down further.
