From Today's Washington Post

Business Section, Digest pg C1

SEC Chairman Arthur Levitt Jr. wants Nasdaq's OTC Bulletin Board to
dump thousands of small-company stocks unless those companies start
filing financial reports with the commission. Levitt threw his support behind
a rule approved in December by the National Association of Securities
Dealers that would force more than 3,000 companies off the Nasdaq
Stock Market's over-the-counter listing service. The Bulletin Board has
been plagued by stock manipulation in recent years.

The exchange rate of LLE shares for SK shares will be 2.8 along with the $18 per SK share. LLE says it is confident it has the better offer. From a quote by LLE's CEO,

"William Blair, SK's own financial advisor, has opined that "it is more likely than not that, as of the time of the anticipated closing of the [LLE Offer], the value of the consideration which would be received under [the LLE Offer] would exceed the value of the consideration which would be received in the [Buyout]." The Buyout Group has failed to confirm that its financing is available.
In fact, Philip Services acknowledged in a letter to the SK Board that as of February 7th, Philip was unable to fund its equity commitment. As noted in SK's own public filings, SK is not a party to the Philip equity commitment and may not have a claim against Philip in the event it breaches its commitment and in such event SK Parent "might not have sufficient funds to consummate the [Buyout]."
