Get a good lawyer
Former CEO John McConnell (JM) could get a fat severance. Technically and legally speaking, the Co has now been taken over by the territorial Yukon Govt. in a Change of Control. JM didn't resign on his own. Under such circumstances,
JM shall be entitled to get $2,187,500 for termination without cause AND related to Change of Control of the Co.
Also, key officers shall be entitled to get in aggregate up to $6,108,000. JM's was well-paid as his annual remuneration was over $2 million per year with incentive awards.

No being forced into creditor protection is not a corporate take over. The CEO simply becomes an unsecured creditor. In fact, he may also be sued by just about anyone.
