Recoverability bridge (on click): claimed $48.0M → (− $26.0M damages overstatement) supported $22.0M → × 0.55 merits, capped by respondent solvency & non-Convention enforcement → realistic recoverable value $11.0M. Requested facility $6.0M ⇒ coverage 1.8× < 3.0× minimum ⇒ decline as requested; restructurable $3.0M staged (merits-milestone tranches, budget cap, higher return share, adverse-cost cap) ⇒ coverage 3.5×.
