As quoted in the press release:
Nordgold plans to acquire all High River shares not tendered to the Offer and is currently assessing which transaction structure will be used to do so. Consideration payable under any such transaction will be identical to the consideration offered under the Offer. If it is determined that a shareholder-approved transaction will be undertaken, based on the number of shares acquired under the Offer, Norgold will have enough votes to approve the transaction without requiring the support of any other High River shareholders.
