Great news- I found the old process confusing. 2.4 cents a point is reasonable, especially when using those points to redeem for the new Park Hyatt Maldives

The value under the old method was a lot better at $.02/point but it is nice that you can purchase a larger amount and aren't limited to the 10% rule.

Thanks for the heads up.
