Drifter,

A lot of people have talked about the type of transaction that may take place in a buyout scenario. I hope you can clear something up for me. Many have been wanting more of a cash deal rather than stock from the acquiring company. This confuses me. Let's assume the buyout is for 100,000,000 and the acquiring company's current share price is $100/share. What is the difference between the acquiring company simply giving EESO $100,000,000 in cash for all the stock or; giving EESO 1,000,000 shares of stock??? Can't the shareholders simply sell the new stock they received in the buyout on the open market Post buyout???
