w2r - "Does your statement mean, as long as everything is in place for 7/1, THEN the process will start for reviewing the financing contract, confirming translations, etc to then eventually sign the contract" - NO. The contract process on all sides is 99.9% complete - IMO.
" ...OR has that work already taken place and we can safely assume the financing contract will be signed next week, possibly on 7/1?" - YES. MARD/DARD/VIETSERI GMO biocert approvals for KBL/Prodigy DS silkworms occurred several months ago according to my sources and special conditions were agreed to.
The new VN GMO laws / regs were also passed by the VN govt. several month's ago.
7/1/19 is the effective date of these new laws that have been passed previously.
As to the contract being finalized on 7/1 - very high probability with a P/R or 8-K to follow next week even with the 7/4 US Holiday and shortened trading week. We'll see.
