If it happens that they become a minority share holder, well, they may have something up their sleeve but if Hicks is adamant, there is nothing DIC will be able to do. Just like Moores and Morgan - Morgan wanted a seat on the board but just couldn't get one because Moores had the control. I'm not talking just about a seat on the board - if Hicks wants things his way, things will happen his way and DIC won't be able to do a thing about it.

But, as you have said lets just wait and see.
id have thought it would be all or nothing for hicks though?

he gets first option on gilletts 50% and cant afford it so gillett can sell to whoever.

id have thought it highly unlikely that even though he cant afford the 50% that he still has any power to dictate what is done with them?

thats the reason i dont think its true.
