RE:RE:RE:More on 2017 results snootchybootchy - the shares Fernandes holds will be excluded from the vote as he was determined to be receiving "collateral benefit" under MI 61-101 (minority approval rules). See pages 67-68 of the Information Circular.
This is probably for the best as I don't see Fernandes voting against a deal that sees him walk away with $158,430,160 (share value he holds, plus options and RSUs that will immediately vest upon deal completion). In addition there is the "Fernandes Amendment" which gives him another $5.4 million for releasing any future legal claims plus $5000 a day for any consulting he may do for the company after the deal is done.
So from my calculation, the remaining insiders hold about 8.2% of the outstanding shares, institutions hold around 21% and the remaining 60% are held by the general public. So it really all depends on how we as individual investors vote.
As for myself, I will likely vote no. This deal seems to have been done simply to benefit the insiders (pages 62-67 of the circular). Plus I don't see Motorola walking away, especially after the 2017 results that just came out. We should be able to squeeze a few more $$ a share out of them!
