Why did they accept the patent as "collateral"? Could it be because they didn't have much choice? We don't know the details of the agreement, but it would appear that AERO did not have the funds to return the Miller's investment. So I would assume that the Miller Trust is now hoping to at least recoup their investment, which I guess would be in the neighborhood of .035 cents...and as I understand, those shares are supposed to be restricted for one year. Correct me if that is wrong.
