Oracle director Joseph Grundfest acknowledged during courtroom testimony Thursday that the company's US$21-a-share offer for PeopleSoft may not be its last.
Software maker SAP and the Defense Department were among a half-dozen parties that asked a federal judge last Tuesday to prevent Oracle's in-house attorneys from reviewing confidential documents and information.
Three days before Oracle publicly announced its intention to buy PeopleSoft, the deal was already viewed as a way to sow seeds of doubt in the minds of PeopleSoft customers.
PeopleSoft investors voted overwhelmingly to re-elect the company's board of directors on Thursday, giving the software maker some breathing room in its battle to avert Oracle's hostile takeover bid.
