JV = Joint Venture
OP co = Operating company
A name or location of either company hasn't been finalized.
(most probably Luxembourg)
The joint venture company is formed for the installation.
The 'OpCo for the operating of the system, revenue sharing etc.
Thanks Villas,
Short and to the point.
Wonder what the outcome may be. He seems to take it as the normal course of doing business.
That article has harmed both shareholders and the company.
Good job we had it filed otherwise it would have been a very sorry w/e.
GLTY
Any chance of putting his e mail up here Villas ?
Interesting villas,
But thats not what he is saying in his e mail.
If Tim Huff had corresponded with him then we might be able to see better where the claimed anomolies or mis-statements might be.
I see Motley Fool has a habit of trashing GTE BTW.
GlobeTel has so far declined to provide me with the most basic contact information about the Russian partner (its PR contact explained to me that it would be highly unusual for a company to provide such information. I find that highly unusual.) She did promise to send my request further up the food chain. I'm not asking them to show me the money. Just show me the phone number.
And now he says in his email
He spoke to the CEO !!
Re Seths e mail
---------------------------------------------------------------
'Still nothing in the 8K on the identity of this Russian mystery company. And those 30 Russian cities? I read two. I spoke with the CEO and he had nothing more to offer other than some bits of a story that were substantially different from what was in the PR, and in the 8k.'
---------------------------------------------------------------
From what I understand from his article he said he had spoken to IR who said they would pass his questions up the line.
If he spoke to the CEO why didn't he quote him ?
Good glad you found that.
Knew there was an advance payment there.
What would be interesting (because the value has been $*** )
Is this
3.3 INITIAL FUNDING, EQUIPMENT, SOFTWARE. Following its receipt of the
Initial Payment, GlobeTel (or its affiliate) shall make a capital contribution
of US$50,000,000 (FIFTY MILLION US DOLLARS) either to JVCo or OpCo (in the
case of OpCo either directly or via JVCo), such funds to be applied to the
operating costs. Provided that RP timely complies with all its obligations
hereunder, GlobeTel (or its affiliate) shall transfer or procure the transfer
(by way of in-kind capital contribution or in other arrangements (not
involving significant expenditure by the JV Entities)) the equipment necessary
for the Project to OpCo (either directly or via the JVCo), the deemed value of
which equipment together with associated know-how and Intellectual Property,
the parties agree (and in no circumstances dispute), is at least US$***),
It may be the 'capital contribution' could be partly 'capital equipment' perhaps.
Yep,
The little 'golden retriever' caused quite a bit of damage.
Could have been worse.
Humm
Why do we do this !!LOL
Have a good w/e
Luxembourg 'company' being considered/formed so 'tax free' .
Penalty for non performance appears stock related.
GTE have 'board' precedence. ie control
Beginning to think that this is a USSR 'beltway bandit' deal whereby the 'Duma' guys get 'privatisation' of a 'national' comms system.
(And thereby hangs a tale !)
If that is the case then it wont be allowed to fail !
So much of the specific' performance' appears to be on the providsion of equipment. Other party responsible for 'smoothing' the way.
What loomed large for me was the contract to be interpreted in English. Thats a major ! Forum though was not included. Thats not good.
jmo
Digesting this a little more over night.
Interesting,
Obviously done his DD. !
'--------------
As the kind of nerd who never lets ignorance stop him from disassembling expensive machinery or trying to build his own PCs and TiVos, he's interested in computers, software, and every other kind of gee-whiz technology out there. As an investor, he's partial to damaged goods and companies with great margins.
Among his favorite things are bike rides, fresh bread, red wine, stinky cheese, and warm golden retrievers. If he can get all of that in one day, plus poke a little fun at the worlds' smarty pantses -- himself included -- all the better.'
-----------------------------------------------------------
'warm' golden Retrievers ???
Isn't he old enough to have a girlfriend yet ?
So this is the guy who has managed to knock a few mill out of peoples pockets ..........
I dont think Chris Meyer or Ralph Dumas would risk a reputation they have built up all their lives on a fly by night company.
Do you ?
I also dont see anything wrong with a deal with a Russian oil company.
They are the ones with the money - loads of it !
Well that presentation made for a depressing w/e.
Had been meaning to get the time to listen to that for a couple of weeks.
Guess I was in sort of 'denial' about this for a while but had been there before......... (as you can see from my postscipt}
The bottom line is that either the SEC is in denial or it must be an 'accomplice' in the operation of the 'failure to deliver ' racket.
Some time ago I decided it was a partner in crime.
What to do?
Find a better regulated market ?
Lock up your shares ?
Trade something else ? commodities, forex ??
Unless the SEC or Gov. decide they want/need to do something about it there is little the small investor can do was my conclusion.
GLTA and a good w/e
Today we have all been down to $3.00 and up too $10.00 +
All just in one day.
And only had the best news possible a few days ago.LOL
Oh some of little faith ..........
'Thats what Jesus said ' (Monty Python)
Patience ...........
Low ?
Flota,
Which board/site is that pick on pls ?
FLNI ?
Morning Mide,
Seems I got a little confused about which board I was posting on last evening !
Happens after the 2nd G & T. I am afraid !!
Thank you d-k that illustrated beautifully what I had been looking for.
Landslide Ken ! LOL
Think this 'range of signal' thread should be on the other board.
You may find a better answer from the 'engineers' there !lol
Wimax looks to a radius zone of 30 miles on the regulated microwave frequencies in the near future.
(It will have to have that cabability to get up to a Strat anyway)
Obviously this is line of sight and may be about possible with the installation on the Seattle Sky Tower for instance.
(As has been installed already)
One of the 'big sells' for Globtel over any competitor must be that in the future the 30 Russian city 'hubs' may be enjoined to just one or two Stratellite Hubs.
This gives an obvious edge to choosing Globetel for a WiMax and VOIP installation.
(The fact that it may also provide Government with a 'Big Brother' may be irresistable !)
If anyone wants insight into Sir Chris Meyer you may want to read his book 'DC Confidential'.
Causing some embarrasment to the UK Gov.
http://www.guardian.co.uk/usa/story/0,12271,1667796,00.html
He is not a rich decadant 'Sir' by any means.
More of the ilk of 'Sir' Richard Branson, down to earth and considerate. (Funny how he keeps coming up here !LOL)
Whilst his book may give some embarrassment to both US and UK Govs. He has been brave enough to be candid in his assessments of both Bush and Blair, (Some suprises there !!}
Since Iraq it is sad to say that the world is a smaller place now for British and US Citizens.
However IMO Sir Chris has come out on the right side and consequently a credible and acceptable envoy for GTE in 'other' countries.
(At this point in time I am not so sure the same can be said of Rubicon though }
Happy New Year to all
Certainly the start of 2006 looks promising
Love the names Ken,
Helps us to remember more easily.
Gold Rush
After the Gold Rush
Sounds really interesting.
Quicksand ......
Ominous ! LOL
Yep your right about the Ark animals. Just think if it was
'Two big bad tempered sight defecient quadropeds, with horns on nose'
Anyway wanted to wish you and this great board and all who visit a really prosperous New Year.
PS Thanks for the chart post on GTE this morning. Everyone as you can see cant wait for Tuesday and Seasonality GTE January!LOL
And to you Ken,
Looks like GTE season once more Ken !LOL
How 24 hrs can change !LOL
For Auld Lang Signe
Lets not forget we have lost not only Rocky (twice) but Wolfrun and Techbear this year. Wheres Caradoc too ?
All left the board because of needless provocation and baiting not to say just plain rudeness.
Thats three good people gone who were all doing there best to help keep us informed. A thankless task sometimes.
Meanwhile somehow the provocoteurs seem to survive and the board suffers doubly. doesnt seem right or fair
Part of the problem is that sometimes things just dont get expressed as they should on a computer.
Cryptic sentences can easily be misinterpreted.
Some people have difficulty expressing themselves in a freindly manner.
Take the trouble to be nice and when the heat is on remember emotions run high and tempers can fray.
I have posted too much but its been on my mind to put this down on the board for some time now.
We have a great and useful board here and great people too.
Help protect it. We nearly lost it !!
GLTA and a Happy New Year.
Thats me lot for the year Mide.
Have a good one and thanks again for stepping up to the plate.
Thanks Low
Have a good one.
Thought we had the golden X to look forward too next week.
Looks like it made it today then.
And to you and Low,
Your not leaving without giving us your 'wrap'on the day are you !!??
Here's to you Rocky,
Wherever.
Happy New Year
GTE out with a bang and in with a bigger one !
GLTY
Mide,
Should know this by now but...
How do we check GTE's current float pls ?
The financing is with private investors.
This is a commercial enterprise.
I suspect setting up the Dumas WIFI system smoothed the way for licensing and gave cred. with the private sector.
Now we can see how having people like Sir Chris Meyer, Dumas and Rubicon cuts through beurocracy and gets GTE to the top of a particular countries tree.
JMO
GLTY
Add two 00' to your contract.
ie 600 M
Usually contracts such as these are to Int Cham of Commerce contract terms.
Preceeded by 'letters of intent'. presumably all the conditions of the 'letter of intent ' have been fulfilled.
This is a done deal. Note the Contracting party has 'gone public'
Now there will be 'specific performance' which if not adheered too may result in contract termination.
27 months is a tight programme in a 'foreign' country with a Russian Winter ...............
Looks like we are going to do that 20 M and more today!
Feeling better Low ?
Right
I am about all in right now.
Cant be out even if there was a price to pay! LOL
Seasonality too!
I am going to be interested to look a little deeper into Nils
'system'
Way out as it may seem ..........
Not quite. I expected new support to be sought out on Day 154 (Dec. 29th), either higher or lower, followed by a lift on day 155 (Dec.30th). New moon is Friday, and the approach to the new moon usually has holders exiting their positions, and buyers opening new positions (planting new seeds) on the day of the new moon and a few days afterward.
Last new moon, Dec. 1st, we closed at 3.17, and the previous new moon, Nov. 1st, we closed at 1.87. I expect a close Friday somewhere in between, about 2.52.
------------------------------------------------------------
There seem to be a few 'low blows' going on here.
Kicking someone when they are down is not on.
For all the best laid planning, unexpected news and market manipulators screws with all the TA.
Some are caught blind sided and some can consider themselves just plain lucky.
It was touch and go yesterday for most everyone I bet........
And the best laid plans of mice and men.
Lay off Low. please , he's entitled to his opinion right now.
After all we have valued it here for months now.
Those on the right side of yesterday, consider yourselves lucky frankly. cos it was a close run thing ..........
GLTA
Delete at will .......
This could well be a 20M Vol day
11M + now.
Low float so .......... could be interesting afternoon
GTE seasonality indeed !

ADX
D+ crossed D-
Apologies Midi seen it now and its heading to cross the ADX
Happy New Year
You showed great conviction yesterday Braden
GLTY
I see the D- crossing the ADX.
A real sell signal.
This PR even overcomes any of that and writes a new chart IMO
I wonder .......
What timing on Huffs part. Seems to have got deep pockets by the short and curlies.
Glad yesterday is history for now. LOL
GLTA
He is on the board but as you see from the bid/ask killing any trading
Dont think so,
It will be the specialist, probably has his hands full and wants to know where and how to pitch and bat.
Having said that it should have been sorted prior to open.
I would be suprised if its held up for news.
I am not sure we want another suprise today LOL
Cooling off period perhaps,
Seems sensible
Gwen,
Do be careful with pennies, and in particular pinkies.
Hook up with Ken.
I know he now has a penny board too.
Stick with his main board for now, if you dont mind me suggesting
