The burn rate will be increased. But the estimated cost to develop and commercialize the first Eligix product is only $4.0 MM, so there is some hope that revenues will begin later this year that will offset the cash burn.

The LTD of $22MM is ELIGIX preferred stock. The value of this is included in the purchase price, so there is no dilution here, as for as I can see. Eligix will make best efforts to convert all of the preferred into common prior to the closing of this transaction, and if they don't then certain formula adjustments are made part of the transaction to keep the cost level at 6.6MM exchange shares to BTRN. IMHO, long term debt is not an issue here, but of course cash burn is a big issue. If BTRN is correct about this technology, they this will be a beneficial deal. If not, then BTRN is in big trouble.
