Discussion was based on a paper prepared by EGGI that
highlighted several examples of problems arising under the 2007
Law on Corporations and Limited Liability Companies and that
discussed ways in which they might or might not be dealt with by
regulations promulgated under that Law. The length of the
discussion generated and the desire of participants for time to

continued at a later date, and February 18 was selected.
