Granulocytes, specifically neutrophils, help the body fight bacterial infections. The number of granulocytes in the body usually increases when there is a serious infection. People with a lower number of granulocytes are more likely to develop bad infections more often.
Congrats on a sick trade. If the buyout happens before the options expiration, you can exercise your options for stock, purchase the stock at $28.00, and sell the shares for $40.00 and make $12.00 per share (less the price of the options). Realistically, the value of the call option will go up to $12.00+ and you can just sell the option.
All call options have the following three characteristics: 1  Strike price: this is the price at which you can buy the stock (if you have bought a call option) or the price at which you must sell your stock (if you have sold a call option). Expiry date: this is the date on which the option expires, or becomes worthless, if the buyer doesn't exercise it.
