``The litigation will likely weaken our financial position``
What financial position? EDIG can and will issue debt or stock to finance whatever it takes to insure its survival, and rightfully so.
To give up 20% of its patent stake just to pay one time legal bills is a questionable act, imo.
Besides, they will likely counter and ask for digecor to pay their legal fees.
Also, EDIG has a ``financial`` partner with regards to its eVU business.
Certainly your concerns are well worth noting, but it is all doable, imo.
