<li>"The conditions precedent to the VTO have not been satisfied within one year from 22 November 2021 ... the parties have declined to carry out the VTO."</li>
<li>This statement was lifted from Telenor's (the major shareholder of <a href="https://www.smartkarma.com/entities/total-access-communication" target="_blank" data-smartkarma-citation="entities:948:1" rel="noopener">Total Access Communication (DTAC TB)</a>) brief announcement. Telenor/CP Group aim to complete the transaction within the first quarter of 2023</li>
<li>This appears a cop-out on behalf of both Tender Offerors (Telenor &amp; CP Group), who probably could have pushed for an extension.  And why weren't the scrip terms addressed?</li>
