Another thing to consider is how many shares are held by investors in the US or other tax jurisdictions. Their tax rates on dividends would probably be a lot higher than than if they had a straight capital gain. Since SLI management have been promoting the company world wide, that would have an impact on how the sell out would be effected.

I think the best would be to roll all the other properties into a spin off company and sell SLI for a capital gain. Just my opinion.
