_________ is the value to some particular owner or potential owner, is found often in the context of mergers and acquisitions and in family law disputes.

A unique feature of Merger stat/Shannon Pratt's control premium study is a transaction code by type of transaction. i.e.:

"A takeover model became a significant explanatory variable for firms that had no coattail. A voting power model was a significant explanatory variable for firms that had coattail provision." This is the conclusion of:

About half the state and many individual companies have statutes or articles that require a super majority to effect certain corporate actions. If the minority block is of sufficient size to block such actions, there may be cause to reduce the discount for lack of control. In most cases, this would not be grounds for a slight reduction in the discount. Which of the following term is related to this scenario?

Proof: 84 shares time five directors to be elected equals 420 votes, all cast for one director. Assuming the rest of the stock (416 shares) votes in bloc as the majority, such total of 2,080 votes distributed among five directors would be 416 votes each. Therefore, an individual representing the minority and receiving its 420votes is sure to get one of the places on the board, the majority getting the other four places. The minority in this example must be sure to vote all of its 420 votes for one director; if it distributed the 420 votes among two, it obviously would not win any places on the board. Cumulative voting, move over, requires a majority of the stock to be able to elect a majority of the board. In the above example, five directors, ______________ shares are necessary, or a majority of the _____________ shares total.

If the language of the relevant agreements indicates that minority block of stock will be valued on a controlling ownership interest level of value, a full lack of control discount will not apply to the transactions to which the provision is applicable. For example:
