The debenture exchange closed: Golden Star issued $77.49 million of 5.00% convertible debentures due June 1, 2017 (convertible at $1.65) and cancelled $74.51 million of the 4.00% debentures due Nov 2012. About $50.5 million of the old debentures remain, which the company's current plan is to repay in cash. This resolves the exchange agreed on May 17 and pushes most of the debt maturity out to 2017.
