Not quite out of the woods yet

Although we have received a majority Yes Vote, there are still a couple obstacles before Mr. Crawford's Committee can move forward with the restructure. Justice Campbell has committed to continue hearings on a case by case basis from corporate note holders who are refuting the legal release. Justice Campbell will give his final ruling on fairness to move the plan ahead on Thursday.

It is expected that some corporate note holders such as Barrick Gold may seek appeals if legal immunity is granted to the various parties. The appeals might escalate the restructure to the Supreme Court of Canada. This could potentially cause a delay in the restructure for months.
