RE: Non Voting SharesBeyond my scope. But it would be my guess no matter how many individuals owned them. The owners of the voting shares would be under no obligation whatsoever to consult the non voting shareholders control would rest solely with those owning voting shares.
The Non voting shares would benefit from prudent stewardship of the company in any event even in a takeover. Only when it's poorly managed and you can't effect changes or you don't agree with the takeover then you have a problem.
If that were to happen the new corporate entity would probably issue new shares and could do away with none voting shares.
IE 3 non voting for 1 voting share at $X price.
So the question is. would you be comfortable owning non voting shares?
