SNDK - Adjustment

The SNDK May08 25.00 Call was ITM so the following adjustment was made today to avoid possible assignment:

29-Apr-08 - Buy Back & Roll Out/Up - BTC 2 May08 25.00 Call @ -2.35 -
29-Apr-08 - Interim Trade - STO 2 Jul08 30.00 Call @ 1.38 -

This traded resulted in a net debit of $0.97/share. I normally try to roll out for a net credit, which would have meant going out farther in time and possibly buying additional shares. However, since this is a non-dividend paying position I didn't want to add more funds to the position or go out too far in time. So I decided to roll out/up to the Jul08 25.00 Call, which was the second OTM strike available but still below my original cost basis. I chose the Jul08 expiration since this is an interim trade and I'll be on vacation during June expiration.
