Last year wasn't there a "Furry Otter" or a "Wildcat" that was a supposed strong supporter/shareholder/lawyer? If they could come forward that would be great. Regardless of that you are 100% correct that any funds received towards such an action would have to be held by a trustee with all funds 100% redeemable if enough money could not be raised. We also have to consider the fact that there has to be a carrot or advantage for shareholders that do get involved in this program as its an all or nothing route to salvation. If you set the benchmark at 50% participation it might be feasable (0.10 or whatever) but that 50% deserve something for the commitment.

We need access to IPM's ledgers to be able to contact the creditors and negotiate a settlement. Who knows, .25 - .50 on the dollar may do it. In my experience it shouldn't take much more. After all, the creditors are between a rock and a hard place with this company as well. Negotiate the settlement, establish a time frame for final payment, and then raise the funds through a trustee. Simple.

<< if there was some way that we could be sure the moneys went for that purpose only, the management of IPM could not have any authority over the money.>>

If shareholders ante up to buy the property, would you trust current management to run the company well thereafter? More personal loans, investments in spec stocks like MGAU and Namibian Copper, and other abuses of power? Saving the company is a worthy idea, but saving present management isn't.
