To set the record straight, you do not pay brokerage when converting the
rights to shares. You only pay brokerage on the rights - which is an even
greater reason for purchasing them instead of the head shares.

Disclosure: I have just purchased some rights at 8.5c and with the head
shares last selling at 60c I am quite pleased with myself. Of course if the
price of the shares does drop below 58.5c then my happness will be somewhat
short-lived. They were selling at 57c just before the rights issue
commenced, so who knows.
