Failure to make this payment on time may result in Lekoil and Optimum jointly seeking, and agreeing on, a willing buyer to whom the transfer of Lekoil's 17.14% participating interest in OPL 310, as well as all the financial obligations related to OPL 310, can be made.
'jointly seeking, and agreeing on, a willing buyer"- doesnt sound like a fire sale
Also note the 'may' - The February date isn't set in stone, Optimum may well extend this deadline in light of what has happened, especially is some serious funding offers are on the table.
I'm sure there has been a lot of chatter with the previous potential funding partners and Optimum which could result in a very good outcome for LEK shareholders from these levels. Otherwise we sell up and move on, but the economics of the project remain compelling.
The next update should be interesting indeed...
