Great Post!!! We can still get a settlement on our shares based on the naked short position which may even be larger than any dividend payout. This settlement can occur before or after any dividend payout.
So, I would wait til the dividend issue is resolved AND the naked short issue is resolved. I hope to receive 2 large payouts or 1 very large payout covering both issues.
I would also add that I think that this part of the statutes apply also
(b) Dissolution of a corporation does not:
(ii) Prevent transfer of its shares or securities,
The NMGL A&B's can still be transferred to be redeemed for cash.
