There is a new circular from ferrier hogson admistrators but here is the bottom line
Shareholders rights as a creditor and voting rights at creditor meetings
Ultimately creditors will be asked to decide the future of the Group companies, including whether the company ought to be wound up or whether it ought to execute a DOCA, or otherwise. This will be done at the reconvened second meeting of creditors which is scheduled to be convened on or before 25 July 2008.
Given the Administrators’ view that it is unlikely that the directors breached their duties for continuous disclosure and as such it is unlikely that shareholders will have any valid claims against VRE, for the purposes of the upcoming second adjourned meeting of creditors scheduled to be convened on or before 25 July 2008, shareholders’ claims will be marked “objected to” by the Administrators. Accordingly, shareholders will only be entitled to vote for a nominal amount at the meeting.
In the event that VRE enters into a DOCA or is placed into liquidation and a dividend is to be distributed, the Administrators will call formally for Proofs of Debt. At this time, shareholders’ claims will be formally adjudicated upon based on the specific information provided by the claimant at the time.
Suspension of shares
The company’s shares are currently suspended from trading and will continue to be suspended pending the outcome of the administration. The Act prohibits a transfer of shares or an alteration in the status of members during the Administration period except with the Administrators’ consent or leave of the Court
Links?... Any paraphrasing? ... Anything at all to back this up?...Hmmm. Well the second report is out from ferrier hogson admistrators……… And there is some interesting reading in there….

I just rang Ferrier Hodgson, the administrators. DOCA was accepted. The details will be published here, probably over the weekend:

Upshot is the gold equipment and tenements will probably be sold and some new shares issued to pay out creditors. Nickel assets should be retained. Company will relist at some stage with no share consolidation so all shares remain.
It was a quick conversation and I may have some details incorrect. Will see when documents released, but seems like some light is in the distance.
Thanks for the update, mate. I certainly got the impression reading the DOCA that the nickel assets were NOT being sold off ... yet! As I remember, all references to asset sales in the DOCA were for View Gold - not View Nickel.
Fingers x'ed for relisting - maybe a small Xmas gift?

... The outstanding ordinary shares in View Resources will be subject to a 100 to 1 consolidation ...
That was proposed under the EROC DOCA proposal dated 17/7 but I didn't see it in the AARI DOCA proposal that was actually recommended and accepted.
Good news! I have today received confirmation from the administrators that the DOCA was safely signed within last Friday's deadline.
Fingers crossed for the next step, whatever that might be!
