The articles deal with Dell details on the outside and juicy default, it will be the proxy server to obtain information on things like how much the discount Michael Dell takes actions or what exactly the conditions of the loan are Microsoft. Here, however, the information that the loan will take the form of $ 2 billion of subordinated debt and total capital investment in cash Silver Lake, Michael Dell and MSD for a total of $ 2.25bn. This seems reasonable enough, Microsoft is actually written half the equity criterion, but for a fixed return, but also subject to emotional benefits or anything. And if you are worried about the ease with which the debt markets will swallow about $ 3.25bn of bonds, $ 5.5 billion of term B / C, and billions of other secured financings range,

that with $ 4 billion of existing bonds 4x Dell brings total debt around, making $ 2 billion - almost half a turn - the subordinated long-term debt and emotionally engaged can not hurt. But the most fun things that we have to wait for the proxy. And it is not good enough for some people. Reuters reports that the request by the principal shareholder agreement has already been submitted, a day after the announcement, I guess that means it was in the works before the deal was announced. This kind of surprised me:

Some shareholders said they were angry about the lack of detail on the case, making it difficult for them to determine if the price was right. The company, which declined to comment on the lawsuit, said the board has conducted a thorough review of its strategic options before agreeing to buy.

I would call a little sad lack of details, but this is what I want wait until the proxy is then read out and details

. You know there's a whole part of the performance which is why the bankers thought that the agreement was fair, right?

There is nothing new - as Reuters notes: "Nearly all mergers with a value of over $ 100 million requests per the request of shareholders" - but the speed is amazing. And it is increasingly a fact of life:

It's depressing in this report, which also contains a list of 16 sad-comic treats everyone with more than 15 lawsuits. (The industry average 4.9 technology suits, so, you know, look out for more than 3.9).

can sympathize a little. Management buy-outs are course

all about marker during the action, the management would be foolish if they took the company private in a record. Various communications Dell - all stakeholders to the tune of "this will be the beginning of a new chapter in Dell, where everything is exactly the same thing" - say very clearly: the agreement has little to do with operational changes and everything to do with the fact that Michael Dell believes that (1) Dell and debt (2) are both right cheap now.

• But it is a little market, and the reality of life is that if shareholders think $ 13.65 is too cheap for their actions, they can always vote for the agreement. By all accounts this agreement was negotiated very well, it seems unlikely that the application reveals that Dell and Silver Lake coughed an additional $ 1 per share if the Council had asked for a little more aggressive. And it's no secret that Michael Dell believes that his company is worth more than $ 13.65. Although this is not specifically described yet.
