Hey jonesw - it seems we are in similar positions (hold TIM instead of securities).

I also do not fully understand TIM's financial mesalliances but I like this company and its concept.

Today's announcement is not encouraging but I hope TIM will manage to survive. Why I think so?
If TIM went to the voluntary administration, its assets would be sold in the current environment (assets price suppresed) and many parties would loose some of their investment.
Today's price fall was caused not only by panic selling but also by shorters and margin calling. I have filling - everything will be OK

My research indicates there are plenty of warrants, options and securities issued by TIM (some of them unsecured: potential loosers - if everything went wrong)

Here is a list:
