King,

yes.

And from what I can gather, they have already done so. DC-10 at the AGM mentioned being 'looked at' or words to that effect. He also mentioned previous approaches.

And having spoken to HGO, they confirmed that there were 'multiple party' discussions about their own ESG stake in 1H 2009. Even back then, Santos was not the only interested party.

The fact that ESG is still here is evidence of the fact that they have already rejected low-ball approaches.
