In my opinion, based on the lawsuits that clearly show that edigital has flled against company"X". If edig wins, any settlement agreed to must be included on the Balance Sheet on edig, as some kind of an asset, either cash, stock, deferred income and or royalty payments and may include other terms.

I cannnot see any reason for the split that you are concerned about, and am confused in the examples you state.

It is a shame that edig doesn't reflect the settlement terms in the quarterly reports and in PRs. The shareholders would like to know how the settlement stacks up against each company based on the type of products that were infringing our patents.

The secrecy and cloaking that edig demonstrates is not in the best interest of the shareholders. Special situations like waiting until the patents were approved is probably justified and others, but not lawsuits. I cannot believe that all of the companies that have settled ask us to not disclose the settlement information, particularly as small as some have been.
