Hi harryAJX , I agree with most of your comments , especially the part about our big
brothers ( ICL , etc ) taking advantage , after all someone once said .... Business is war...
Alexium just needs to keep raking in the revenue , until they can stand on their own , then
the games will dwindle and larger corporates will become serious .

However , while Alexium has in the past used reasons such as " negotiating a bigger contract "
,for delays, there now seems to be a slightly different explanation . for example the tenting
industry

" Alexium ‘s strategy in the Tenting fabric segment is now two-fold. The first is negotiating a robust supply agreement with our initial tenting customer which protects Alexium's access to the larger market while providing supply and testing guarantees for the customer.

and the current MOU with Pegasus

" Alexium structured the agreement to maximally protect Pegasus’ market space while leaving
open significant additional market space open for Alexium to pursue

My take is Big brothers want exclusivity , and that's the hold up in negotiations .I Remember
Nick touched on this point in Adelaide 2yrs ago . just imo...
