while i tend to agree with momg's prognosis (shareholders will see nothing) and suspect that this was actually part of the overall plan (maybe not since the beginning but at least the last couple years) i will say this.....

the best/worst case scenario is easy to see.

worst case: PPS = $0 and fungs connections probably get richer (most likely imo)

best fantasy case: kry is awarded the full $3 1/2 billion 3 years from now, venezuela coughs up the money immediately, kry pays $200mil to the new PP investors then splits the remainder. in the end you have a company with about $1 1/2 bil in assets, 400 mil shares out, no prospects, no management. maybe fung will just make a one time dividend of $3 and close the doors.....

my how things have changed....i give the following odds:

1. shareholders never see another dime.......90%

2. shareholders see .40 five years from now...10%

3. shareholders see above .40 ever.................0%
