Thanks Darth,
On the OK farm, I didn't think much value was there. I thought it was primarily a "leased" operation and that we didn't even own the land. Would love to know differently.
"Competitive" bidding process is the key word. Hopefully that is the case, as most believe it should be. Again, I would think in this environment that a number of China companies would love to get their hands on our China assets. I'm also surprised they didn't try to make a bid on the combination of US & China, giving it a free way into our markets.
And I hate to keep bringing up the "Van" issue. But it is not in his or the boards best interest to not get good competitive bids for China, as that is the only way they will make a very nice profit on their options. Unless of course they get something under the table and a new position at whatever company would buy them.
You mention shareholders now "have" a seat at the table. Did the judge allow for the EC? Or are you just stating that the appropriate papers have been filed? I thought the judge had to agree that it is in the best interest of the shareholders to have a seat to protect from the potential of hiding of assets.
Have a great day.
