15% tax is less than what a lawyer will take from any settlement.

Depending what State you live in, here in California it would be 15% fed and 10% State 25%, did you read where I said that a settlement does not necessarily mean we loose our shares.

At this point I really don't see where a settlement would be coming from, so far the SEC & DTCC seem to be hanging tough, and the nss shorts, won't budge unless the SEC/DTCC caves in. That imo, is not likely, unless there is some real solid evidance presented, backed up by a fabilious VALUATION of the company.

If the DTC decides that they will never clear BCIT then it will never clear. That doesn't mean it will never trade...however. The biggest obstacle to trading, besides not having a counterparty, is the fact that BCIT is not quoted. Don't underestimate the power of ex-clearing. We have seen it in action in all its glory. My shares were purchased ex-clearing. I will take a .15 per share damage PLUS having my shares trade...we can have both. Eventually, BCIT can move to OMX for clearing. The legal route is to force a settlement for not clearing. I'm not convinced it can force DTC to clear.
