The last time we were facing an extension of the Third Eye loan was on Sunday, August 04 and they made the announcement to extend on Friday, August 02.  This time, with the loan maturity date being on Monday, Sept. 16, there was no announcement on the prior Friday, the 13th.  This could mean that the announcement to extend will come first thing Monday the 16th (maybe there were negotiations with 3rd Eye through the weekend); or, that they simply plan to pay off the loan on the 16th.  The other possibility is that they won't announce anything but that is unlikely given that they have made these announcements regularly in the past.  If they pay off the loan then presumably either Hepalink or Eastern would need to advance those funds ($11M) in some way.

I said that I wasn't going to make any more predictions so I won't even try to make a connection of any of the above with the coming topline announcement.  But, if they were going to kill 2 birds with one stone then making an announcement on the loan and topline on Monday morning isn't beyond the realm of possibility......is it?  Sorry, just trying to keep things interesting.
