Anybody paln on purchasing shares at the 10% disco

Anybody paln on purchasing shares at the 10% discount in December? I would like to, don't know how many funds I will have laying aroung though. MIHL board said this would add to the float, are they new shares or do they come out of the outstanding or authorized shares? I would normally say that adding to the float is a bad thing but if they come from outsatnding shares it may free up some trading to get some volume started. Any thoughts or info about this, I am not to familiar with it?
