That was written up at the same time as Dean's withdrawal from QASP, and it is contingent upon him getting that funding that was ready to be signed "imminently". I think that if Dean had actually pulled off the funding of, minimally, $20 million, that would have been worth a $2 million finders fee. Unfortunately, that funding seemed to go where all his funding went.
Why you would think Jeff was at fault for that, I don't know. It was what he found, after he took over, that has led to all the rest of this nightmare. And, that is what he found, not what he created.... and the nightmare would only have been worse without him trying to find a silver lining
