As a result, on March 31, 2021, the Company will have 9,629,913 Series A Shares issued and outstanding and 2,370,087 Series B Shares issued and outstanding.

TA.PR.D was issued as a FixedReset, 4.60%+203, that commenced trading 2010-12-10 after being announced 2010-12-2. In 2016, it reset to 2.709%. I recommended against conversion, but there was a 15% conversion to the FloatingReset, TA.PR.E, anyway. The issue reset to 2.877% in 2021.
TA.PR.E is a FloatingReset, Bills+203, that arose via a partial conversion from the FixedReset, TA.PR.D.
