Hi following is the question from GMATPrep

Not one of the potential investors [u]is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were [/u]not to be concluded

a)is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement is signed that includes a provision for penalties if the deal were

b)is expected to make an offer for buying First Interstate bank until they sign a merger agreement including a provision for the penalties is the deal was

c)is expected to make an offer to buy First Interstate Bank until a merger agreement be signed by them with a provision for the penalties if the deal were

d) are expected to make an offer for buying First Interstate Bank until it signs a merger agreement with a provision for penalties if the deal was

e) are expected to be making an offer to buy First Interstate bank until they sign a merger agreement including a provision for the penalties if the deal were

OA is a), but I eliminate A at first because " merger agreement is signed that", I thought that should be directly after " merger agreement" , can anyone please explain the usage of "that" here?

Thanks in advance!
