So it looks like all Tangelo had to give up was $200K in fees and amended the exercise price on the warrants given to Third Eye Capital.
This is wonderful and shows the support TEC is giving us. Also, it gives Tangelo some breathing room as they ramp up Latin America expansion and other growth opportunities in the next few months.
