Interesting take on the situation mo1975. There is no doubt now though that the present management has destroyed most of the value of the company for us shareholders and the BOD has sat back and done nothing. As I have posted before, the BOD needs to step up to the plate and make changes with the management team... Kherson

Joe, I am fairly certain you are giving these guys too much credit. I agree with Mo. If the merger is truly the best solution, they shouldn't have any qualms with taking their packages in options. Leave the cash in the company so it can be used towards a brighter future.

Its the management and directors that are wasting the time and more money by continually delaying the meetings .

LOL - are you for real big bank? The oil patch is at a discount - AVF has cash and money talks. Why merge with charger priced at full market value? The cost of the deal is more than the market cap of charger................................... LOL

i totally agree if you have read my previous posts. BUT this is the deal and do you really want to vote it down waste 6 months to negotiate say a .50 cents on charger. either way i agree, avf has cash , credit like i said . companys want to merge with us. avf probably will get the most calls for other deals. then charger then pace. as pce is big fewer deals are out there for it.

Any merger that AVF is involved with will have a portion of that $25M. Ask the question what are the contracts for AVF management. A standard will be approx 8-12M for the payout to management.. Anyone that thinks they will get to an AGM and vote them out is out to lunch. Management will step down, just like Woods, long before that happens and they will still get their packages.

So what's the value of Avf?? Our oil assets? Maybe we should sell the whole company and close the doors!! After the sale of ER our heart of the company was gone.. To me we have a no win situation now. The managers have made boat load of money for themselves...yes or no we loose...>

Bigbank, if pace and charger assets are so outstanding, why have they not been taken out? Mr. Big bucks billionaire Gallacher could buy all three companies by himself if he saw it to be a profitable venture. It would appear he finds the NHL to be much more profitable.

Big bank and buyandsell are only the most recent additions to the posters with questionable relationships with AVX management and the BOD, of whom most regular posters on this board are already aware of___ Their postings indicate just how desperate they are to ram this merger down the throats of the shareholders...

i guess we have people that are for and people that are against. it has been good sharing views and i thank all for there participation, even if it is a NO view. we have to think about everything and make our vote on what makes sense to us. im sure that the bigger shareholders are making the decisions on this one but i think it will be a close vote. within 10%.

Right now its a coin toss for me , selling ER without shareholders approval is a throne in my side!! To me they lack respect for us... If we had strong merger partners with lots of oil growth and strong balance sheets i would say YES! What happens if we do not merge now? body knows?. our furture is uncertain and nobody likes that, TO ME THIS IS UGLY!! UGLY!!!

pce is holding it up. nova had big takeout dreams and it never happened they were given a 30% premium. and are willing to wait at the cost of no growth. might be waiting a while in this market. the little guy with alot of his portfolio on the line should take the gains and divi. its not ugly its just greedy by pce.

my view is nova is not in pce for long term they wanted a big buyout as spy is really pce chx 2.0 and if you like the asset plays and want to see them drilled in this lifetime then its a good deal for you and you get premiums and divis.
