I think that whoever was going to provide us with finance was going to demand some tough terms, especially when they know the company is about to take off. Convertible note holders are not charities and like us holders have interests of their own.
I think the main thing is that we are in a good financial position and ready to reap some benefits from our revenue streams for the first time in two years since the original agreements were announced. If our share registry gets a little on the portly side then that is just the price you have to pay. I would be surprised if we do not all end up better off for having been holders.
Remember around January when we had all the posters complaining we would run out of money? Things could be worse.
