You are correct but $325k isn't all that much money for a company when you stop and think about it. I don't know much about the fees paid to other custodians but $325k sounds like a heck of a bargain for what the purchasing company walks away with at the end of the day.
Also - I think KAVL (another Moody play) merged in rather quickly but then nothing happened for the better part of a year IIRC.
