They do that to stop the clock and take the club off the market so they cant be undercut.

Yes, because due diligence and further negotiation take place. If they had all of the information and everything was negotiated and/or known, you'd enter into the sale agreement pending PL approval.
 

@Hellerad what would happen if the loan term was expiring imminently, and the capital to repay the loan was available.
Assuming venue was in the USA and dependent on the jurisdiction, the Lender sues to obtain a judgment and enforce any security interest they were given.

A default on one loan can trigger default terms in other loans. This can cause a chain of defaults from various Lenders.

Most businesses here would consider a bankruptcy to restructure the debt.

Not really. The exclusivity period is to negotiate price, not to look at the books.
 

Fairy sure that's why you enter exclusivity is to get everything broken down

And once they caught wind of the 777 "loan" bankrolled by one place and serviced through another...then a legal case...time to move on

The injunction to freeze the use of any of the 777/ACAP assets was only made 10th of July, Friedkin pulled out on the 17th, it was announced on the 19th.

In response to people saying surely they knew the situation with the debt - yes they did, its not the finances that are the problem here in the main its the legalities.
 
So is it the fact that 200million (777 loan) needs to be given to someone straight away (god knows who to now)?
Or is it the worry that we would be investigated for poca (proceeds of crime)?
