That's absolutely correct, Eric.
In addition, the amount of the donation ($5,000 USD) is so tiny that it could
not even remotely be thought of as sponsorship or financial support unless
LEGO sends these sorts of things often and regularly, which I certainly
wouldn't count on without some sort of binding agreement.
