		Section I defines white knight bidding and hypothesizes that the nature of their involvement in corporate control contests might lead to negative valuation consequences for this subset of bidders.
		If the white knight and the target had prior plans of merging their operations in a friendly manner, at the very least, the white knight firm would probably have revealed its acquisition plans to investors well in advance, without specifying a particular target.
