Unless the Malaysians have heavily underwritten the PMG debt, there is no way that Paul Guy would have converted a "significant amount" of his secured debt into share capital unless he was 100% certain that Hamman's position was very wobbly indeed.
Why should he? He couldn't lose in a gone concern situation with his first charge on club assets. Methinks that Hamman and his dubious Langston dealings have been found out and he'll take a very low payoff to walk away to avoid the possibility of getting zilch.
These Malaysians are extremely astute business people, and Paul Guy is no mug either.
