What's the plan for the rest of the money, grants ?

Grants and big donors to push through preclinical and a for profit partner for clinical is my vision, but I am open minded to alternatives.

Doesn't that fall apart when the for profit partner needs to pay the other $990 million dollars and then still cannot patent the drug?

I don't know. It's certainly a risk, but there's only one way to find out. I think there are companies willing to do it (cipla is one that I'm thinking about approaching).
