From the above link I can presume that the float got realigned and now the interests are different or are "according to plan". IMO, the board does not have many choices(or the right choice is here finally) to go with because, I bet, someone(BIG) finally got control of a big enough block to steer(after the cash infusion needed) this profitable operation. Just me.
