I'm pretty sure they will pay it very soon. Having worked at MegaCorp, I understand how dysfunctional and beurocratic corporations can be. Somebody dropped the ball and they're now playing catchup. It's not like somebody in finance can just write the check. Probably has to go through legal and a half dozen signatures by people who themselves may be on Holiday. In the meantime, some guy in marketing had to draft that lame notice and get it to the affected ships.
