Are you trying to suggest Gordon Galt has no idea how a "conditional" takeover works?

Of course he does, he hasn't been around for 5 minutes. Have a look at his bio on the Taurus website.
Have a look at what Taurus do!
Have a look at all those people he could consult in regards to his acceptance of the offer.

This isn't the first time he has been involved in takeover activity.

It's crystal clear to me this was done in an attempt to convince minority shareholders it was a good offer, and to accept. It was announced before the Independent Expert report was released.

Your last statement is false. I suggest you re-read a few of the recent announcements (particularly the June 22 and May 15 ones).
If you think it is true then we will see a change of substantial holding next week from T2, with their holding going from 86.75% to 85.73% (which was their holding at the start of the offer).

That won't be happening.
