Concerning point 3:

...
(3) Some of the participants in the discount deal are
real pros and Helix, a venture capital fund who put out
the bridge loan are no dummies. They would walk away from
their investment if Panda was not capable of
turning the corner. The day to sell is when you see them
heading for the exits.
....

Helix has "walked away". They didn't invest in any of the last
few rounds. They did loan $2M, but on completely onerous terms -
if Panda didn't pay, Helix owned all of Panda's patents.
The "investors" in the two discount deals specialize in such
deals. They short the stock, drive down the price and then
cover with converted stock at a discount to the lowered price.
They could care less whether Panda is successful - as long as it
doesn't go belly up in next 3 or 4 months they come out fine.
