NEW... I'm not sure... but I believe he knew that the only way to make sure funds did not evaporate in the hands of others... was to make certain equity had control... some control... over the fiasco already in process. Looking back, I believe it was all (Susman's & Nelson's efforts) for nothing.
Unfortunately, IMO, we had a horse in the race... but the race had already begun, without us (equity). Don't forget, the takeover was planned well in advance... and therefore, only those on the inside at that time (before takeover) understood what not only was going to happen, but had THEIR ducks all in a row before that fateful day. Nothing was going to prevent what rolled out after that Thursday. Whoever were the recipients of any monies, wherever they might have been, if any... are long gone and in the hands of anyone else, but equity. Just my 2 cents...
Many have said it before... equity usually gets cleaned out... I believe (in the absence of any irrefutable information to the contrary) that all water has passed over the dam.
