Best analysis and summary of Greek Shipping deals I've seen so far, bar none. Thanks, now I know where my money went. Now, if I could just figure out how to get it back . . . . . . . . . . doesn't look good, does it. Oh, well, didn't have much to start with.

Rande, thanks for dropping in and reinforcing what I have been saying for a long time. I am happy you did not get caught holding a bunch of this one. SEC filings reveal much as do older press releases. I was reading some from 1997 and Midland was buying and selling so fast the ink could not have possibly dried before another transaction took place; including buying and selling between Midland and CNH Holdings; who just happen to have some of the same very busy officers and or directors. It could almost be construed as press for the sake of selling stock; not companies. Sure is a mess and I don't look for any solutions anytime soon; if ever. Dusty

Rande and All please read... America's Coffee Cup go's under after having problems with Ralphs Stores their largest customer. MIDLAND INC 8-K Filing Date: 12/23/96 On December 20, 1996, the registrant hereunder, America's Coffee Cup, Inc., a Colorado corporation ("ACC"), entered into a Letter of Agreement to Purchase (the "Purchase Agreement"),with Club Rouge, Inc., a Nevada corporation ("Club Rouge"), and it shareholders (the "Club Rouge Shareholders"). The above deal falls through. They now aquire the following: MIDLAND INC 10KSB Filing Date: 5/9/97 Mega-Hell and Mill Agro Acquisitions: On February 18, 1997 (the Closing Date), the Company executed, delivered and closed under a Plan and Agreement of Purchase (the Purchase Agreement) with the shareholders (the Shareholders) of MILL-AGRO (HELLAS) SA, a Panamanian company, and MEGAHEL NAUTICAL SA, a Greek company (both of which business entities are collectively referred to herein as the Subsidiaries), whereby the Company acquired from the Shareholders all of the outstanding proprietary interest of these entities, thereby making them wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. The Subsidiaries have now changed, or will forthwith change, their names to Midland Steamship SA and Midland Agricultural SA. In turn, the Company changed its name from America's Coffee Cup, Inc., to Midland, Inc. .... The newly constituted Board of Directors then appointed (i) Mr. Traios as Chairman of the Board of Directors and as Chief Executive Officer and President, (ii) Mr. Marsik as Executive Vice-President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, (iii) Mr. Stidham as Executive Vice-President (Managing Director) of North American Shipping and Trading Operations, (iv) Mr. E. Robert Barbee as Vice-President and (v) Mr. Pierce as Secretary. The aquisition gets RECINDED and yes I beleive NHSA could be the same Greek shipping company still wanting to go public. Chris Traios must be one and the same, this is where I understand Mr. Marsik wanted control and Mr. Traios had control. MIDLAND INC 10KSB/A Filing Date: 9/10/97 The Company, the Shareholders and the Subsidiaries subsequently rescinded the Purchase Agreement under applicable federal securities laws effective the date of the original acquisition; thus, for legal and accounting purposes it is as if the acquisition had never taken place. The recission resulted in (i) the return of all Series A and Series B Preferred Stock issued in the acquisition of the Subsidiaries and (ii) the resignation of Mr. Traios from the Board of Directors and from all officerial positions which he held with the Company. Mr. Marsik then assumed the positions of Chairman of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive, Financial and Accounting Officer, President and Treasurer. From here my guess is CNHH is an open shell looking for assets and revenues just as we are today. Noble House SA as it is now called still looking to go public so the ink a letter of intent with CNHH fast.quote.com From here CNHH aparently wants to get into the oil business fast.quote.com And continues going after the oil services business fast.quote.com And continues this strategy fast.quote.com This is probably why the didn't want Noble House SA IMO.

Rande, Can you provide me with a link showing where Nattem USA had a Greek Shipping line or any shipping line? I went through the early 10K and 8Ks on Comtec Int/Nattem USA and I didn't see anything... Is your only connection to Nattem USA/Comtec Int the name off the Vessels? Thanks, JeffG

Rande, Maybe you can clear something up for me. Nowhere did it say Mark Pierce was an officer of CNHH. He was their legal counsul. And even if he was involved as an officer of both companies, so what? I know of people that are on the board of directors of more than one company. That doesn't mean a thing. Ernie. P.S. I do find some points to look at in your posts and I will reply after looking at the rest of the filings and news releases concerning them.
