Thanks Patrick, I took a chance with FGL knowing very well that the bulk of my portfolio is invested in STXIND25 and strong bluechips. I cant see Vodacom staying down too long as I think it should be trading at the same price if not better than MTN. I have not compared their fundamentals though, but Vodacom does have the most market share, and has much better network coverage and customer service from my experience.

Fgl has really been a upset/upbeat share that few have punted but turned the game on its head.

Patrick how are going to handle the Abl right issue. Can the holders take up their rights from their last deposit in december or will they just forfeit them and retain what they have

I'm hoping for some suggestions. What would be considered to be the fairest?

Giving the option would be a tough ask. I'd like to fix on one solution. Either assume everyone would sell their rights and just increase the total cash on hand, the easiest solution, if I can figure out what the sale price of the rights is. Option B is to assume everyone would exercise their rights and allocate the right amount of shares to people. This could be a little problematic as I have to do that before the next deposit, and let the cash go into negative until the deposit has been made.

What generally happens in a case like this, do most people exercise their rights or sell their rights? And if they sell, is there a standard price?

I think the exercising of the rights would be the easier option because the main issue with selling the rights is determining the price. You can ask 5 people and they will give you 5 different answers.

Patrick, I think most people would take up their rights, so let's go that route
The problem could however be, as in my case, that I will need more than R100k to take all my rights - In such cases, we can maybe let the person take up all their rights, letting the account go negative and then sell the number of shares required immediately to return the account balance to zero or if that is too complicated, maybe allow ABL holders to have a negative cash balance?

Rare Holdings - RAR
Seems like they had a 100:1 share consolidation. Those holding the share in the challenge have suddenly become millionaires with massive growth (e.g. RAR RARE HOLDINGS LTD 500000 6 800 13233.33% R4,000,000.00 76.81%)
Found this in a SENS released in July -
Quote
Consolidation
The Board proposes that the company consolidate its authorised and issued share capital on a basis of 100:1 (subsequent to the Share Increase) with the aim of easing the administrative burden and costs incurred by the company in dealing with such a large number of shares.
Not idly do the leaves of Lorien fall.

Fixed, only one person held that share, another reason to remove penny shares from next years challenge!

Just answer this Griffin. Would you invest your grandparents money into penny stocks? Realy? I doubt you would.
I started here with nothing and still have most of it left.

However the majority of the traders in this competition would most probably agree with you.

Yes we do.  :)
