Is that before or after it splits? Is it going to split? When is it going to be taken over by JDSU? I think I'm losing track of what's going on here. Can anyone clear this up for me?

ocli is no longer splitting; the split was cancelled because of the jdsu deal. we should get split adjusted shares of jdsu; currently, i think that we'll get the 6 cent dividend on the declared date. i'm not sure when the takeover is completed. announcement of the dividend was today, so i can't see that any of the jdsu factors have not already been considered by the ocli board. in other words, the dividend should be what it claims.
