Spartak...insofar as your question about QMCs' offerings vs QDV & Nanosys CFQD/CdQD is concerned, the PR states: "QDX product line of industry leading quantum dots".
I take this to indicate that QMCs' 'industry leading product line' goes beyond the confines of just Cd or Cd-free , and into area of bespoke products made from various custom formulas. As we've seen in numerable whitepapers over the years , it's not as simple as Cd or Cd-free, there are a wide variety of QD structures, components & formulas , with more being developed every day: example; http://www.sigmaaldrich.com/materials-science/nanomaterials/quantum-dots.html

Jamis...not being privy to the exact contract terms , I don't suppose any of us can be sure how all this works in detail. But I'd still have a hard time believing GTG gets 1st dibs on 'all' revenue up until the 1st $20M in profits is in-the-bag , but who-knows , that might be the case. And it might help explain why QMC chose to make this private offering at this time , which per Teds' figures , helps cover QMCs' operations costs through the next year or two , until we reach the $20M revenue milestone figure.

Deep-penetration QDot cancer-killers from Boeing:
Nano-diamonds used to destroy cancer cells
Patent Number – US 9,289,511
Boeing has invented a way to bind diamonds in the form of quantum dots to cancerous cells and destroy them.
Quantum dots are nanostructures which can be tailored to absorb and emit light radiation of desired wavelengths. The idea is to get a quantum dot attached to a cancerous cell and then cause it to generate destructive UV rays.
In order to carry the quantum dot to the cancerous cell, the invention uses a target moiety that can specifically bind with cancerous or pathogenic cells.
The target moiety is attached to the quantum dot with a linker and then coated with a biocompatible material such as fat, carbohydrate, protein etc. Boeing calls the resulting compound a “bioconjugated nanoparticle” which is then injected into the blood stream. Once the bioconjugated nanoparticle attaches with a cancerous cell, the patient is exposed to soft x-rays.
The quantum dot is designed to absorb the x-rays and emit UV radiation. This UV radiation then destroys the cell by disrupting its membrane and damaging DNA.
Existing methods of UV radiation therapy can’t reach deep regions of tissue because of limited penetration of UV. And this technique from Boeing can target and destroy cancerous cells throughout the body since x-rays have higher penetrative power.
