Kenbuys a call option on WIN with a strike price of $38.00. Thepremium Ken pays is $1.00. At expiration, WIN has not increasedit's share price (it turns out, WIN's stock was fundamentallyflawed, relying too much on the company's interior strengthcombined with a little flash and sizzle...their competitors,meanwhile, gained ground by being good overall companies and byfocusing on both external and internal things that reallymattered). WIN is still sitting at a price of $38.00. The optionexpires worthless.
