Tru you post a cogent argument. I certainly would not rule out your forecast nor put the implied motive past VC funding.
That being said, i think your specific reference to section 10. Business Combination Transaction on the form D nixing any rumors that NeoMedia might be merging with another company, buying another company or other type of business combination transaction, is leaving out a significant alternative and this is a buyout, licensing agreement or sale.
Section 10. Business Combination Transaction specifically references
business combination transactions, such as a merger, acquisition or exchange offer.' If there is positive announcement in the pipeline I would not expect it to be a merger or exchange offer and certainly not an acquisition.
Nice post though thanks for reminding us about the other side of the coin that is still in the air.
