I have had a few communications with C= staff but nothing more than what is in the press release is public at this time. I am expecting some information to be released within the next week and will update the forum when it does arrive.

Enlgish Translation below:
Tulip Computers NV (Tulip) waives bid for Commodore International Corporation (CIC). Tulip has on 26 September Announced a bid for all the shares CIC for consideration. Tulip browsing or other forms of co-operation.

The reason that the bid is not carried through that Tulip is a lack of certainty about the possibility for the further development of the Commodore business in the short term, enough to attract outside capital.
