    rathmore, so far it has progressed very quickly for a non-trading administration.

    At present, the maximum the unsecured creditors can get is estimated at 20c in the $. As they need to be paid out in full before the shareholders get anything, it means that the shareholders get a tax write off.

    If the administrator could find a Deed of Company Arrangement (DOCA) that would inject an additional $40m into the administration then the unsecured creditors would be paid in full. Anything over $40m and there might be a surplus for the shareholders. With 209m shares on issue, every $2m over the $40m would give you a one cent per share return.

    Who are ARF? Don't remember them from when I held, but they are one of the parties putting together a DOCA, and are owed $35m as an unsecured creditor. So if, for example, they put in a bid for the company which was, say, $50m more than the admins. can get now, they would get $35m back as a payment to unsecured creditors, and the shareholders should get 5c/share.
