The proposal contemplates the payment of cash consideration in the amount of $3.50 for each fund Unit, Class B Unit and common share of CS ManPar that would be acquired. The proposal also suggests that Cooke would intend to acquire and, at its option convert, all of the fund's outstanding convertible debentures, although no terms have been specified for the acquisition of the convertible debentures.
