I would say you are right
@pe981, the only

Personally i don't see Arena getting paid at all and if they do it won't be for the full amount. They have shown just how greedy they are and thought NXE would just lay down and take it.....but now you are triggering unconscionable conduct clauses which are built into most contracts these days with regard to that termination fee and with the governing law being in Western Australia they have really outsmarted themselves.They are not going to want a long drawn out court case which can become expensive not only from a cost point of view but also time.
If you then add to the fact that NXE have a very substantial claim against them then you would say that NXE are very much in the drivers seat and could actually come out ahead if they play their cards right.

"have shown just how greedy they are and thought NXE would just lay down and take it.." . I fully agree ajax00
To add on an cheeky 2.5 Mill in extra fees to what is already owed - as Arena did - is just taking the piss...NXE may be crap at auctions, but they are highly seasoned scrappers - and will not roll over for fat, complacent and arrogant corporates like Arena with out a fight. This is NXEs happy place.
