RESPONSE TO SHAREHOLDERS
Q&A WEBSITE
September 21, 2007
We continue this week with answering the most commonly
asked questions, in no particular order.
Q) “As usual there is a lot of misinformation being
passed on the boards. Some hear what they want other try
to read between the lines. I think one of the main points
that will clear a lot of this up is in what words were
used to describe our progress. Do we have acceptable offers
in, or did we have an acceptable offer come in that was
accepted. One more point is the difference between an offer
and a contract. Do the offers come in legal form that just
has to be signed to close the deal, or do the offers come
in, then one is chosen and then it has to be changed to
a legal contract to be signed to make the JV. Thanks again
for helping me sort out fact from fiction.”
A) When an offer is received, the terms and conditions
can be further negotiated between the parties and, if acceptable,
signed. It then binds the parties until such time as a
formal contract is signed and registered with the applicable
government agencies. Offers can be transmitted verbally,
via written form from the attorneys, or directly from the
participating corporations.
In the case of Medinah, each potential Joint Venture participant
has been provided with a “term sheet” as to
the expectations of Medinah that forms part of the “Non-Disclosure” and “Non-Compete” documents
signed by the parties for everyone’s protection during
the negotiating process.
Medinah has a very viable mining project and is negotiating
to obtain the best possible agreement for the company and
its shareholders.
