They already seem to me to be moronically stupid.

IANAL and it seems to me if they were serious, this whole thing wouldn't be so dragged out. The only real way for them to force the issue is to bring this into the courts. In the mean time it is arguable that they are encouraging a buyout (IMO, not that dissimilar from extortion). If they get bought out, presumably the execs can retire with more green in their pockets. Again, just my opinion.

Yes, but that's not their goal.

Their *goal* is to drive the stock price up as far as possible, so it's above the strike price of their options.
