/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cell Therapeutics, Inc. (CTI) (Nasdaq: CTIC; MTAX)
announced today that it had completed the sale of $82 million principal
amount of 6.75% convertible senior notes ("Notes") due in 2010 to qualified
institutional buyers in a previously announced private placement pursuant to
Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Notes
Offering").
      CTI also announced today that it had completed the transactions
undertaken pursuant to a previously announced Conversion and Placement
Agreement ("CAP Agreement") with two qualified institutional buyers who are
existing holders (the "CAP Holders") of an aggregate amount of approximately
$38.38 million of its outstanding 5.75% Convertible Senior Subordinated
Notes due June 15, 2008 ("5.75% Notes") and 4% Convertible Senior
Subordinated Notes due July 1, 2010 ("4% Notes"). Pursuant to the terms of
the CAP Agreement, the CAP Holders exercised their right to convert their
5.75% Notes and 4% Notes into approximately 3.3 million shares of CTI common
stock. In consideration for the CAP Holders exercising their conversion
rights, CTI issued to the CAP Holders approximately 9.9 million shares of
its common stock. The CAP Holders are also investors in the above described
Notes Offering.
      The press release dated October 31, 2005 provided an incorrect
conversion rate of 378.78 shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. The
correct conversion rate is 380.37 shares per $1,000 principal amount of
Notes. The press release also provided two tables detailing certain
transaction data. The second table incorrectly stated a "Conversion price
per share" of $2.63 and "Shares issuable upon conversion" of 31,178,707.
This table should have stated a "Conversion price per share" of $2.629 and
"Shares issuable upon conversion" of 31,190,567.
      These securities have not been registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, or any state securities laws. The Notes, the common stock
issuable upon conversion of the Notes and the common stock CTI has agreed to
issue to the CAP Holders in consideration for the exercising of their
conversion rights under the 4% Notes and 5.75% Notes may not be offered or
sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and any applicable state laws.

 investors in the above described Notes Offering.
Questo, che non era precisato nel precedente comunicato, dà almeno un senso 
alla megamancia elargita ai "CAP Holders". Non è stata una via d'uscita 
privilegiata (e truffaldina) concessa ad alcuni finanziatori, ma solo una 
ulteriore calata di braghe di Cell per ottenere ulteriori finanziamenti 
dagli stessi finanziatori di sempre.
Il danno da diluizione per gli azionisti resta, ma almeno in questi termini 
l'operazione ha un senso.

... ma il mio "esperimento", è destinato a fallire, o dovremo sentirne
parlare ancora per molto? ...

 (mi sa che mi sono perso qualcosa)
... ho preso 100 azioni cell (ca 200 euro)  il giorno del rialzone ...
... cercavo di capire cosa ci fosse di eccitante a star dietro a cell
... mentre nel frattempo ho "giocato" coi certificati ...


Un giorno potresti pentirti di averle o, molto più probabilmente, di averne
prese solo 100.

 averne prese solo 100.
... o semplicemente la stessa cifra, con altri strumenti, l'ho già
rivoltata almeno 10 volte ... ;-))))

 l'operazione ha un senso.
mettiamola così che forse è meglio
un premio ha chi ha da sempre sostenuto la società
