The company tells me that they are awaiting a term sheet from a Nigerian family that would lead the deal with $10mm. They also represented that Hinter Biden has been working with them on this idea for a year now and is considering investing personally along with other partners at Rosemont and potentially Rosemont would invest as well. PIC is considering a $1-3mm investment, but is just starting diligence having just met the management of Marathon last week. It would help our diligence greatly if you could get a read on it all from Rosemont.
