One needs to have at least enough ETH in their specific DAO holding ETH addresses to cover the ETH transaction fees associated with moving the tokens.

In return, they are claiming a whopping sum of $4 million. At this point of time, it seems to be a fine arrangement given the meteoric rise of Ethereum prices in the recent times.
