Imagine CANON, KYOCERA, NOKIA, PENTAX, PANASONIC all taking stakes in EDIG to the tune of 5-10 million shares each, in the open market, as terms of their settlements, along with some cash outlay.

What would be more beneficial to the pps long term, having global giants staked in EDIG for 5-10 years or getting an extra million in cash in one time settlement?

It removes a lot of uncertainty and dries up the float, having the net effect of a reverse split but without getting undercut.

All that collaboration potential is also an added benefit. Likely EDIG would eventually be taken out.
