The only reasons I can see why the management would agree to
pay them so much if the deal falls through are either:
1) They are plain stupid; or
2) They want to force the shareholders to agree with them.
In other words, they are acting in their own best interests rather
than in dispassionately advising the shareholders on their
best interests. Effectively they are making the decisions instead of the shareholders as should be the case.

The fee is so high that if the deal does not close, it would have
a major impact on the business.The fee is also a lot higher than it
realistically needs to be to reflect PLATs costs. Basically the
whole thing stinks in my opinion and could be grounds for a
shareholder lawsuit against the directors.

As regards the merits of PLAT I would not agree with you. This
seems to be another classic case of a software company that is
unable to generate real profits (in cash terms) for shareholders
or add to shareholder value. The management seems to talk
good strategic bullshit but the price of the stock rests on
hope rather than fundamentals.
