um SIGA zu kaufen.Muß aber wie gesagt jeder selber wissen denn für sein handeln ist jeder selber verantwortlich.
Also SIGA ist vor einigen Monaten ein Merger Agreement with PharmAthene, Inc. eingegangen was eigendlich nicht schlecht ist.
Jetzt kommt aber das große ABER.
Irgendetwas muß passiert sein in den Monaten nach dem Mergerabschluß denn SIGA zeigt sich erstaunt SELBSTBEWUßT und ich glaube zurecht.
Am 4.Okt 2006 gab SIGA nämlich bekannt:
October 4, 2006 - 4:10 PM EST
SIGA Terminates Merger Agreement with PharmAthene, Inc.
SIGA Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: SIGA) disclosed today that it had terminated its Agreement and Plan of Merger with PharmAthene, Inc., pursuant to the terms of that agreement.
In reaching its decision, the SIGA Board of Directors considered many factors, including recent positive scientific data and the receipt of approximately $27 million in grants for its smallpox and arenavirus programs over the last several months, which amount includes a grant of $16.5 million from the National Institutes of Health also announced today.
Donald Drapkin, Chairman of the Board of SIGA, commented, "SIGA is excited about its future and committed to the development and successful completion of its lead product candidate, SIGA-246, a smallpox antiviral treatment, as well as its other anti-viral and anti-infective programs."
