I'm not saying it isn't, but what would be wrong with hiring extra outside counsel?
Also:
So press him on it. Our proposal requires a simple yes or no, or at least a respectable counterproposal. And if they keep stalling, we bite the bullet and go to mediation. It seems clear management's tactic is to stall and make just enough progress to keep us from going that route. If the rumors of an "announcement" Q1 of 2017 are true, maybe they're just stalling until then to agree to a TA coinciding with whatever that is.
But enough games. We give them a hard deadline of January 31st to agree to our proposal, or we put that $2 million to better use than a billboard and go to mediation.
Also:
The Negotiating Committee met with Jonathan Ornstein on Wednesday for several hours. He explained the company position on the comprehensive proposal we submitted. His overview of the situation and his plans for going forward, while encouraging, did not answer any of the substantive points in our comprehensive proposal.
But enough games. We give them a hard deadline of January 31st to agree to our proposal, or we put that $2 million to better use than a billboard and go to mediation.
