In the context here with this Company there is no Financier who I know who would buy Company shares at TEN CENTS !!!!!!!!!!! And I know quite a few Financiers. Even 2 cents is high. Those guys are sharks.
Actually, it says "UP TO $5 million". We don't know if they ever ponied up more than the original $1 million. The could have gotten the 50 million shares for 2 cents each. Just another case of a PR being worded in a fashion that seems to be less than completely forthright.
