Who gets to look silly in this matter????

1)The foundations of HWP for not following the advice of their board of directors.

2)If the deal falls through it will give the impression that the Foundations are running the company.

3) If CF leaves would any competent replacement want to take charge knowing the the Foundations will have the final say so on important decisions and bolt on those that they don't like.

4)If the new CEO of HWP makes a promise (to the foundations)of no lay offs, where does this put earnings?

5)Would most of BOD leave since their advice is of minimal importance and of no real consequence?

6) How many executives will leave with CF?

7) Suppose the stock price stays stuck or retreats from where it is. Will shareholders be happy?

CPQ will do fine without HWP and the risk is with HWP
