No reason for him to negotiate in this environment except unless maybe he is looking to finance new airplanes or something? Must be a very interesting back story to this.
This is one of the more thought-provoking takes I've seen around. It's no secret that Connie has profited greatly these last four years from being able to go to clients and lenders alike and tell them he currently runs the most stable shop in the ACMI world. It's entirely possible that his business partners have already baked that stability into their dealings with K4, and have gently suggested it would be in everyone's best interests to git'r'done ASAP rather than risk a return to the Bad Old Days.

A management team capable of seeing win/win solutions to challenges like these is a vanishingly rare thing in this business. We're all waiting to actually see the language before making up our minds, but I think we've been given reason to expect good news.
