Cerberus wanted to acquire the services of Brown Rudnick for £15 million. It paid that money so, effectively, others would not have that service or information, regardless of whether it was of value or not, and to keep others off the field. It obviously paid fees to ensure it had the optimum chance here. It felt that there were others who could have acquired this.
