    CBS and Viacom


    CBS and Viacom are reportedly on the cusp of announcing they're getting back together. According to the Wall Street Journal, the stock exchange ratio for the deal will be roughly 0.59-0.60 CBS share for each Viacom share (and that report sent Viacom's share price down almost 5%.) WSJ
     
  2. >> the stock exchange ratio for the deal will be roughly 0.59-0.60 CBS share for each Viacom share

    I assume that's for the holders of Viacom's "B" shares.
    How about the holder's of Viacom's "A" shares ?
    Is it proportionnal ?
