ABSTRACT:
A unit may include a forward contract and a remarketable security that secures performance of obligations of the forward contract. The forward contract may require a holder to purchase a quantity of stock from an issuer at a settlement price on or before a settlement date. The remarketable security may have an issue denomination and a maturity date that is later than the settlement date.At the time of issue, the unit may provide that the remarketable security is to be offered to new holders at a remarketing time at a remarketing denomination that is different from the issue denomination. The unit also may provide, at time of issue, that the remarketable security is to be remarketed with a remarketing coupon frequency different from an issue coupon frequency, without subordination to senior debt of the issuer, and/or without a previously available interest rate deferral option to the issuer.
