| jpducros | I've seen questions where convertible-bond are still considered simple structure, while Warrant is definitely a sign of a complex structure. Not sure why however. |
| Xiangrong | Maybe it's because convertible-bonds are not always dilutive, ie. when the option is OOM, it's like a normal bond. |
| ascruggs92 | The Key between simple and complex is the prospect of dilution. If the bonds are not convertible for whatever reason within the current period, there is no potential of dilution and the company is said to have a simple structure until terms of conversion are met |

I am using your study notes and I know of at least 5 other friends of mine who used it and passed the exam last Dec. Keep up your great work!
