Oct 23, 2015 at 20:47 | comment | added | Nikhil Mulley | how does it work out when the individual share holder does not take any active action for the shares he holds at a stock trading company (dealers)? lets say especially when the company is no longer listed on stock exchange -- does he get his shares converted into liquid money and deposited into account automatically or he gets bartered with the buying company's shares? | |

For remaining (minority) shareholders to be forced to tender their shares in a buyout, the threshold is typically higher than 50%. For instance, in Delaware and New York, it's 90%.
