    A system and methods for extracting value from a portfolio of assets, for example a patent portfolio, are described.
    By granting floating privileges described herein, a portfolio owner can extend an opportunity for obtaining an
    interest in selected assets from the portfolio to a client who lacks the resources to accumulate and maintain such
    a portfolio, in return for an annuity stream to the portfolio owner.
Their IP lawyers must have had a lot of fun writing that one.
