The buyout price for the royalty fund
How much per unit do they have to pay to get more 50% of unit holders to say yes to the deal?

I think a reasonable price will be around 6.5 to 7. Anything higher than that will not make much sense for the buyer, because the pre-pendamic price is only 8-ish, unless it views the possession of the fund being a very good negotiation vehicle for getting the private company.

@ I@ l'm actually happy Jane was not able to buy the full additional amount of shares, it worried me with Sir owning 20% and if Jane owned 20 % they would only need 10% to get control of the trust. So with Jane now having 13% it would take 17% to get control of the trust, a little bit more. If Jane and Sir come to some agreement we would not have much influence.@

In Canada, you need more than 2/3rds, not just a simple majority, as per takeover law. In other words, don't hold your breath...

So whoever wants control will have to pay up. Explains the language SIR Corp has been using.

thanks for the information, you never know who can make bedfellows. Maybe Jane and Sir make a deal but for them to get 2/3 would require a decent price offer.
