$MMAT $MMTLP $TRCH Filed: March 9, 2026 — 10:03 PM (very late filing) ⏰ Case: In re Meta Materials Inc., Chapter 7 Bankruptcy Court: U.S. Bankruptcy Court – District of Nevada Document: Response by Citadel, Virtu, and Anson opposing the trustee’s supplemental brief. ⚠️ Not legal advice — just a plain-English summary. ———————————————— 📄 What This Filing Is (Attached) Citadel Securities, Virtu Financial, and Anson Funds filed a joint response asking the court to quash the Rule 2004 subpoenas issued by the bankruptcy trustee. Those subpoenas seek trading records related to potential market manipulation involving Meta Materials stock. Their core argument: 👉 The trustee has not proven the company itself was harmed, so discovery should stop. ⸻ ⚖️ Their Three Main Arguments 1️⃣ No Standing They argue the trustee must show: •Meta sold its own shares •At prices affected by manipulation They claim the trustee has not identified specific days or sales where this occurred. ⸻ 2️⃣ Most Transactions Were Not Market Sales They argue many transactions listed by the trustee cannot be tied to manipulation, including: •Debt conversions •The MMTLP dividend (no proceeds to the company) •Share payments in acquisitions •Warrant repricing events Their point: these were contractual or private transactions, not open market trades. ⸻ 3️⃣ No “Good Cause” for Subpoenas They argue: •The trustee already has data from other sources •These firms do not possess unique information Therefore the subpoenas should be quashed entirely. ⸻ 📊 Key Argument About Manipulation They claim spoofing or manipulation only affects prices briefly, meaning the trustee must show: •Specific manipulation •On the same day Meta sold shares They argue the trustee has not done this yet. ⸻ 🧾 Their Attempt to Remove TRCH and MMTLP They also argue: • TRCH: Claims may not transfer to Meta after the merger • MMTLP: Was a dividend, not a stock sale Their point: these cannot create damages for the bankruptcy estate. ⸻ 🔎 Subtle Tells in the Filing 1️⃣ They Admit One Transaction Type Could Matter They acknowledge the ATM (at-the-market) stock sales involved real market pricing. That leaves a door open if the trustee links manipulation to those sales. ⸻ 2️⃣ They Focus on Timing Instead of Denying Manipulation The argument is mostly: “You didn’t prove manipulation affected specific sales.” They do not actually deny manipulation occurred. ⸻ 3️⃣ They Spend Significant Space on Rule 2004 Limits When defendants focus heavily on limiting discovery, it often signals concern about what discovery might reveal. Rule 2004 is intentionally broad. ⸻ 4️⃣ They Attack the Evidence — Not the Investigation They argue the trustee’s evidence is incomplete after three rounds of briefing. That suggests the real battle is over whether discovery should proceed, not whether manipulation occurred. ⸻ 🧭 Big Picture This filing is essentially a pre-discovery defense strategy. ⬅️ They are trying to stop the investigation by arguing: • No standing • No causal connection • No good cause for subpoenas If the judge disagrees on any one of those points, the Rule 2004 subpoenas likely move forward. 🦋 dropbox.com/scl/fi/jp91gqq… dropbox.com/scl/fi/87idc60…
