I do not see a problem with this. At the time of the transaction, they were Superiors Holdings so they would have the right to do this.
I know I need to sell 100 widgets to you, I only have 90 but my affiliate has 10. I get the 10 from my affiliate to sell to you and make a deal with my affiliate as to how and when I will pay for them. I sell you the 100 widgets but I do not tell you that of these 100 widgets, only 90 are really from me, as far as you are concerned, they were all from me. Now I pay my affiliate for the widgets I purchased from them but our transaction is over and I do not care how you got the 100 widgets I needed.
I do understand what you are saying, not sure I agree with it but then I was not at the table and am not privy to any emails or conversations.
