You just hit the nail on the head! Your hypothesis could well be one of the several motives from day one. All the motives would have to have two common factors: GREED & MORAL CORRUPTION! Just think of the answers to these questions:
1). Why would a CEO want to kill a company with huge potential of sales of a proven pharmaceutical product with good drug efficacy?
2) Why would he purposely refuse to file any quarterly or annual reports, in spite of quantum leaps in production and sales (at one time)?
3) Why would he want to discredit the very chief scientist responsible for the R&D and financial health of this company?
4) Why all the secrecy to all these clandestine dealings? Are they too dirty to be disclosed in the shareholder's meetings?
5) With so many bankruptcies going on for so many junior firms, would he anticipate that it would be just another slam-dunk easily orchestrated to accomplish his self-serving goals?
6) Killing the old goose and creating the new golden goose to lay eggs for his collaborators would make him a hero to the new company, let alone the glory he will receive from the press release. Just imagine the headline news: Dr. Hero turns around the production of Nicosan from zero to mega-production status to save millions of SCD sufferers after exhausting all his efforts to save the tired and malfunctioned XeChem. Of course, he would have to assume that there would be some little voices crying foul here and there and eventually they would die down and fade away. But would they???
Thank God there is an old saying: "You can fool someone sometimes but you cannot fool everyone all the times."
Happy are all those creditors who can see the light of truth!
Happy are they who will vote for the restructure under the leadership of Monty so that they will get a lot more than what they have loaned out.
Happy are those SCD sufferers who will someday be able to receive their first Nicosan on a therapeutic basis!
Happy are those XeChem supporters for all these years who can finally be compensated for their investments with their hard-earned money.
Happy are the shareholders who have the good fortune of having someone like Monty to turn around this misguided ship.
May the Good Lord be the witness to see to it that it shall happen, sooner or later.
Let the righteousness prevail!
Amen!
