I think (but I could be wrong), that the date is not a termination date on the contract but a date after which ABK or MS can terminate the deal for any reasons they see fit. |
It's not, it's essentially a date wherein after that date, Activision can walk away for whatever reason they want to and still pocket $3bn but it's not a date where the deal simply drops dead so you're correct. I don't believe they need shareholder approval to temporarily ignore it but I'm not sure about board, I doubt they'll say no either way.
