Forcing Bioasis to Answer
As you know, I have not stated on here how I think people should vote. In fact, I have stated that unless the consequences of a "No" vote are known, it's dangerous to vote "No" because of the Lind foreclosure possibilities and the subsequent loss of Bioasis intellectual properties.
I could read the hundreds of pages in the dozens of documents that Bioasis has posted to SEDAR. I may even be able to correctly figure out what would happen with a "No" vote. But I can't and won't give legal advice or even express my opinion about this in public.
It's a question for Bioasis to answer. Bioasis management and Graeme at Colwell have a responsibility to answer, in full, the question about the consequences of voting "no."
My understanding is that when asked the question, GD's response is that "There is no Plan B."
That response is cavalier and meaningless. He should be ashamed of it. Using the analogy of chess, the king can be in check or can be checkmated. With a checkmate there is no Plan B. You've been beaten. If you're in check then you have moves that may or may not save you.
Bioasis shareholders need to know whether they've been checkmated, to be told whether a "No" vote will cause the certain loss of xB3 and all of Bioasis's IP to Lind.
To say there is "no Plan B" can mean that there may be no Plan B but one could be formed and executed. Or "no Plan B" could mean that there is no possible Plan B that would save Bioasis from this deal.
Graeme needs to be given instructions by Bioasis on how to ACCURATELY answer all questions about the deal, including questions about Lind's rights, the payouts for cancelling the deal and other costs associated with exiting the deal.
Calls to and from Graeme and Zoom calls with Dr. Deborah Rathjen need to focus on the unequivocal answers to these questions and not on the obfuscation of "There is no Plan B."
Hold their feet to the fire in your calls to them!!
And remember, if you've already voted, you can change your vote if new and more complete information is available to you.
And it's not enough for Bioasis to say that everything you need to know is in the dozens of legal documents with hundreds of pages to be found on SEDAR and in other filings by Midatech and others. It might be legally enough, but hiding behind that law is not an expression of faithfulness to shareholders.

A strategic alliance between Biodexa and Ellipses would mean that 94% of the benefits of such deals would go to people and companies other than to Bioasis and its shareholders. Is that lost on you, poof? Bioasis had a presentation detailing a deal with Ellipses. What was that? Where did that go? It stinks to its very core, poof. jd

poof says, "To me this looks like a takeover of Midatech by Bioasis." I can't help but imagine that even poof was giggling after he wrote that line. He is capable of sufficient hubris.to think he could get away with it. I guess it's a time when a good laugh is a good thing. Ha ha. Ha jd

1.62 % of any future XB3 success compared to our share 5 weeks ago. that is all that is left for Bioasis shareholders in the new structure. Show me where am I wrong in this analysis POF?

So you contend that 1.62% of future XB3 success compared to where we were 5 weeks ago is an acceptable term for current shareholders? I think that a more equitable deal could have been explored. Or, XB3 simply doesn’t work. That is the only scenario in which such a deal makes sense. Seems rather clear to me.

emmit, excellent post. Your earlier calculation was a good reflection of reality. It's a little different than saying that Bioasis is acquiring Midatech and shereholders will get 33% of the upside. If I could give you a few hundred of poof's thumbs, I would. jd

" Mark Day" ? You talking about the guy with that "bright idea" to move to the US and pay all our expenses with those tiny Can dollars AND not gaining a darn thing in the process? Thank you but no thank you! NO!
