I would certainly appreciate opinions on PTSC`s strategy behind this dividend. This is a grand topic for discussion. Some possible reasons I have listed below:

1) Pay service providers that bartered for shares.

2) Save carry forward loss provisions for future settlements when revenue stream picksup.

3) Bank on ?% of dividend reinvested in PTSC shares .

4) Support share price toward first warrent exercise by TPL at $.50

5) Make PTSC shares an attractive hold and prevent longterm short positions.

6) Promote and defend longterm share appreciation on future expectation of settlements.

7) An allowance of the tax code (IRS) to avoid and deliver taxable income to shareholders. Similar to LLP provisions.

.....I would have rather received Cap Gains to cover long term loss, bur maybe that comes later. Hope...abounds.

We have more puzzle pieces and my neck is strained to see beyond the horizon.
