It wasn't necessarily 36 million; there were conditions attached, and there was some debate as to whether the credit might be valued much lower in 2016.
Regardless, there is no defense for our new contract. Eagle has become a bottom feeder with one of the worst contracts, plain and simple. The drunk bullies became very effective at what they do. It appears as if Eagle will continue to implode.
