Global Digital Solutions Inc (GDSI)

[BARRENCE]

You may be correct.

However, my concern is not necessarily that the deal is "dead."

My concern is that the deal has sustained a huge hit and, while it may not yet be "dead," it may be dying to the point that it can not be saved.

If the deal has in fact sustained a huge hit, the amount of time that has transpired, since the deal was initially signed, may be time that GDSI has expended in an effort to save the deal.

If that is an accurate scenario, the obvious issue that is then presented is whether the deal can be saved.

Of course, as non-insiders, we have no way of knowing what the actual reason for the hold-up has been and what the actual reason for the hold-up continues to be.

Nonetheless, in view of the amount of time that has passed since October 9, 2015 (without GDSI issuing any definitive indication that the deal is still viable), common sense, and very basic business acumen, would lead even the most optimistic of investors to conclude that, quite simply, something is not right.

I hope, however, that such a common-sensical conclusion is incorrect.
