The added value is not only that Emerald is now responsible for half of the maintenance costs, but will also contribute through orders to ensure the existence of the laboratory.
Well that's true. I was a little concerned, though not necessarily anticipating, that new Abattis management was going to turn the company into a printing press of dilution to raise money for Northern Vine's development. This new arrangement with Emerald certainly doesn't safeguard us completely from O/S rising in the future, but it does bring a second set of hands to help with the heavy lifting of Northern Vine specifically as they begin building out.
And, I hate to say it, but I think the BioCube died.. :)
You could be right though. Perhaps there's some technologies or patents tucked away somewhere that might be worth something. Not expecting any goldmines though.
