Acquisition Question

How does an acquisition work for shareholders?

If I don't own any of the two companies stocks and read about an acquisition and want to buy the stock for the gain, would I be part of the agreement of the price to be purchased at?

The company being acquired stock price is $9.00 and the other company agreed to acquire all outstanding shares at $16.00.

Hope this makes sense.

Thanks
