well first i jsut want to say thank god for agoracom, i randomly checked the stockhouse forum for the first time in years, man is it ever filled with such crap..

clearly a sign of good faith from both parties in agreeing to extend the due date. to me it signals that hbm and vms want to work together and cooperate otherwise they would have clearly jsut let the deal lapse..

with them only extending it a month, they must be close. im assuming 1 month must be pretty much the shortest term they could extend it, and provides ample time to hammer out the last details. looks bad on both parties for continued extensions 1 after another, i would be very surprised to see yet another.

they must have snagged some kinda roadblock for it to have gone from ahead of schedule, to behind. most likely the 2 claims mentioned yesterday. IMO it probably has to do with the amount of cash and/or how many HBM shares will be included in the deal.

and again thank you all for the constructive criticism, and discussions on this board. its much needed, and cant get it anywhere else on the web
