Legally it's deal or cancelled deal by ER. He is legally bound based on last ER statements he made backed by recent comments made by Steve rai. Meaning 20% chance deal is cancelled. he has no time. Will be foolish to continue discussion past this ER after making those statements last qtr. shareholders trust is critical and important.
