get the aetd numbers out for beppa, page-14

Dear Lucky,

Unfortunately, like most others my vote doesn't really matter as it will be up to hedge fund friends of RBS.

I am not as happy as you are at only 37c (+my 6c) plus an unknown$ amount from AETD sales.

It is the unknown amount from AETD sale that means I do not know what I am really voting for.

Surely BBI can estimate and guarantee an amount to provide some clarity.

If the combined return to BEPPA got to around 70c then I would be voting YES and I expect (only guessing) this would also get the >75% required.

At 43c (really 37) Jury still out with me as I am still waiting to see if BBI come up with some clarity on AETD sale.

At 43c it gives the hedge fund friends of RBS a reason to try to vote it down and pick up lower priced BEPPAS in the aftermath and then pick up the big $ if RBS every does a deal.
