The study of lattice-ordered groups (l-groups) in recent years has yielded several publications concerning the lattice of all convex l-subgroups (denoted by Γ(G)). As for example, in [3], Conrad has shown a direct connection between one possible structure of Γ(G) as a lattice and certain finite conditions on the elements of the group G. In the process of developing variations of this approach, there has been imposed several different conditions on G and Γ(G). For instance, it was proposed by Conrad that if all the minimal prime subgroups have non-zero polars, then the group elements would all be finite-valued. In this paper we show that in general this is not true.
