Nordic Bond Trustee is preventing progress or communications
It is clear that the Nordic Bond is making it very difficult for NMX and the financing process. The Trustee is trying to get everything they can. They know that NMX is under pressure. They filed the extenstion to move the date from Jan to Feb. They filed the petition to remove PWC.... delay tatics.
This is making it very difficult for NMX to communicate anything to shareholders and make progress on financing. Any NMX commentary can be used against them in court to delay further or increase % of payment. I believe Orion wants NMX to make it to production. But, the Nordic Bond trustee is hoping that they can wait it out with NMX under financial pressure. Meanwhile, NMX is likely using creditor protection to speed up the process to resolve the bond cross-claim and finalize the bond divorce. It is a cat and mouse game.
It is sad that we (shareholders) and NMX employees are caught in the middle of the mess. I don't expect any progress or communications until the Nordic bond divorce is complete.

Charlene Surely now NMX should be thinking about an out of court settlement of say half the 'Overrun Account' rather than dragging this out and potentially losing everything (well for their loyal retail supporters anyway)?

Incidentally, any time I email Nemaska, I have always received a very quick and professional response. Even just yesterday when I wanted to have a moan about a certain Government Minister, and his wording on recent media outlets. They were very precise on the status, goals and what they hope to achieve. Try it everyone.... ;-)

For NMX only target is mine + Shawinigan plant to produce highest battery grade LiOH on market. Doubt PG interested in a spodumene mine, there is already many in Australia. Big Mouth Fitzgibbon not necessarely help ... as little trust in upper management.

I am sure they are. It just depends on how far apart they are. It looks like the current Nordic ask is $74m USD (14M in cash + 60M USD make whole)~ 100M CAD. That is almost the same as what the maket cap was $140m CAD.... crazy. I think the Nordic bond was to come down a lot... maybe 10-15M USD

according to transcription seems Nordic angry by NMX amateurship, were open to accomodate PG but as soon NMX realized they will not met deadline for project completion, ask McCarthy to send them letter to cancel bonds. Maybe normal they play tuff now.
