I'm sorry to hear about your current predicament. No matter what happens in the next three weeks, I would devote a good portion of your current thinking and planning to what will happen in 3 weeks, assuming that you can NOT pay the $100,000 bill. By knowing what is most likely to happen if you don't get what you need to get done done, you can be more prepared for the worst case scenario than by ignoring those details until 3 weeks from now.

Unfortunately, you have many things working against you, not the least of which is that any time a seller has extreme time pressures, they are at a disadvantage. Any buyer or investor will discover your time pressure and the reasons why you are at where you're at, which will put you in a considerably weaker position to negotiate. $70,000 for any asset sale of a product that failed to achieve traction is considerably high, higher than many apps currently listed for sale, so unfortunately, I would say that it's highly improbable that you will achieve your minimum sale price in your 3 week deadline.

The last thing working against you is that it seems that you have run out of energy and the will to survive. When an entrepreneur runs out of their will for their company to survive when it's struggling to do so, the Company inevitably dies.

If you have energy left, then I would do everything you can to buy more time with your contract engineering team. Many professionals aren't even really reactive to email from now through January 6th, and then that first week back, are digging-out of an avalanche of more urgent emails and requests. So 3 weeks will likely go back before you can even get an email back to schedule a meeting which might be between 1 to 3 weeks after that email exchange.

I would say that if you want to get back on the right path, then you'll need at least 3 months to resolve the issues with your contract team, and put yourself in a position to even potentially raise money.

But based on you indicating your belief that other projects have a better return on investment, it doesn't sound like you lack the motivation to keep this going.

Therefore, I think the only potential avenue out would be to offer your resignation to the investors and creditors and find a way to get the developers to take over the Company by converting their debt to equity thus leaving the investors with still some potential to see their investment returned in the future, should the developers find some way to monetize this.

That's all the help I can offer not knowing the granular details of your scenario. Normally I would offer a call, but in this case, I think you're better advised by a lawyer who can review the actual state of corporate affairs including the contractual relationship with the developers. If you have documentation that makes it clear that they have far exceeded their authorized scope, then you might have grounds to dispute a significant portion of their bill. But either way, it sounds like at this stage, you should be consulting counsel as to your next step.

I'm hopeful this is at least somewhat helpful despite it not being the answer you seek.
