prezone: the extra litigation costs at Crystallex are due to the noteholders and to CCAA and now the shareholders. CCAA adds a lot of cost - someone has to pay for the monitor. Every monitor report is a 6 figure cost. I haven't read the Rusoro nor GRZ cases at ICSID but they may have been simpler. Were they concluded more quickly? This would also impact litigation cost.
As to shareholder voice - we always had a voice, no-one used it before, now no-one listens to it and in the future - what's that expression: "crying over spilled milk"? Maybe that's unfair - as I've said there is a chance Gowling can be successful.
