That is the $4.5m question.  They are not investing on the Aqua side, so I don't know if Devon can make the case that the PE investment on the DuCool side would mean a co-invest on the Aqua side.  They are sister companies that share the same IP and would potentially share the same production facilities, but they are technically separate companies. Great if it could, but I defer to Devon.  Matlin wanted to do an investment in Aqua but they wouldn't let them.

I'll see what they have. The trick is whether it would be considered a co-invest opportunity or not. The agreement was Matlin is going to put up to $60 million into DuCool but that Aqua would not take any investment from Matlin.  We have been told that Aqua would like additional capital at some point soon (in the 5-10m range I believe) and we'd have the opportunity to invest or help place that.  (Aqua will benefit from DuCool's $60m because they share the same production facilities - hopefully to be located in DE.)
