Posted on LoL forums by an Adjudicator:

Here's how it works (And yes, this is intentional):

You buy the first tear of the goddess. Max out the passive mana gain. Upgrade it. You keep the mana from the tear. You can max out the passive again.

You can now buy one more tear, and max out the passive one last time. Buying another Archangel's, or another tear, will not allow you to gain more mana from the passive.

Hope this helps.
