If they are liquidating their trust account, seems to me the warrants are worthless no?

An amount of approximately $125,900,000 of the net proceeds is being held in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and is invested in money market funds composed of either primarily short-term securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or primarily tax-exempt municipal bonds until the earlier of (i) the consummation of its first Business Combination or (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account as described below. The remaining proceeds may be used to pay for business, legal and accounting due diligence on prospective acquisitions and continuing general and administrative expenses. The Company, after signing a definitive agreement for the acquisition of a target business, will submit such transaction for stockholder approval. In the event that 20% or more of the outstanding stock (excluding, for this purpose, those shares of common stock issued prior to the Offering) vote against the Business Combination, the Business Combination will not be consummated.

Per the 10Q it doesn't seem that the warrants have anything to do with the trust account.
See my post above.
I'm digging into the filings for the terms of the warrant.

On July 1, 2005, the Company sold 20,000,000 units (“Units”) in the IPO for $6.00 per Unit. Each Unit consisted of one share of the Company’s common stock, $.0001 par value per share, and two redeemable common stock purchase warrants (“Warrants”). Each Warrant entitles the holder to purchase from the Company one share of common stock at an exercise price of $5.00 commencing on the later of (a) June 28, 2006 or (b) the completion of a Business Combination with a target business, and expiring June 28, 2010. However, no Warrant will be exercisable unless at the time of exercise a prospectus relating to common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is current and the common stock has been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 or qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the holder of the Warrants. If, at the time of exercise, a registration statement is not effective for the common stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, the Warrants could expire worthless. In no event will any holder be entitled to receive a net cash settlement upon exercise of any warrants. The Warrants are redeemable at a price of $.01 per Warrant upon 30 days notice after the Warrants become exercisable, only in the event that the last sale price of the common stock is at least $8.50 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading day period ending on the third day prior to the date on which notice of redemption is given.
In connection with the Offering, the Company issued an option, for $100, to the representative of the underwriters to purchase 1,000,000 units (the underwriters’ unit purchase option or “UPO”) at an exercise price of $7.50 per unit, which otherwise have terms comparable to the Units. The warrants underlying the UPO are exercisable at $6.65 per share. All of the initial stockholders were granted certain registration rights.

Dipping
Posted by Squire38 on :
Sold the other 1/4 shares at 75. Good luck guys.
Posted by Squire38 on :
I'll jump back in after the dip. I might not have time to post my entry point though. If this 70 holds as support, I might have to buy back some shares at 75.
Posted by Fuzzy1018 on :
whats the story here, down big. would it be wise to pick some here? might dip little further imo. any thoughts?
Posted by Fuzzy1018 on :
choicetrade wouldn't let me buy? any idea why?
Posted by Squire38 on :
No idea. I bought more with that dip in the 30s.
Posted by Squire38 on :
Sold what I bought at 30 on Friday for 45 today. May buy more on the next bounce.
Posted by ridethewave on :
Big bounce coming!

why do you say that RTW
Posted by ridethewave on :
The stock TACA have not tanked. it still trades at 5.58. The warrants gives rights to buy shares of TACA at $5.00 that you can sell at 5.58 as of today. In my opinion, that means, the warrants are still not worthless IMHO. Also, although the pinksheets.com does not show the expiration date for these warrants, if you go to the ihub and go to the pps history page, it shows the warranty expiration date of 2010. It's still gambling but in opinion, the pps drop in warrant was an act of mm's collecting cheap shares. They will sell it back to us at much higher price in 2-3 weeks. imo

lmao...same situation as MSMAW
they are pretty much worthless unless a huge acquisition comes around.
