I don't think that will be the case.

Any funding party will require Due Diligence and will therefore have access to material non-public information.  The access to non public material information will also make them an insider and unable to purchase shares. This is usually done via a Confidentiality Agreement which will stipulate that the information cannot be used other than for its prime purpose (i.e. farmin) and will also probably have a no-buy component to the CA. 

This is normal commercial practice and I would be shocked if it was not the case here.

In terms of any farmin, I would hope that it will be done at a premium to the market value of the business, which can by definition, add value to the shares of RLE.
