"minority shareholders" so 75% of the 48% of none enoc shares not 75% of shares in all. I remember hearing tho if they hit 90% they can force a buy of our shares. 75% of none enoc shares i don't think will happen i for one will go to this meeting and vote no. Not just because of the financial difference in a higher offer but from the principle that they should not get away with this!

SO IT CAN BE BLOCKED BY A DETERMINED MINORITY....

unfair to ENOC! i don't think many would lose any sleep over that. i wasn't suggesting that my little vote would even count, just that after holding my shares for many many years and now having to sell them at a crucial stage i would like to retain at least enough shares to still enable me to vote, however insignificant my vote may be. nothing about this situation is fair and equitable in my opinion.

malkis, you are welcome. I am just concerned that readers of this BB are more worried about what GANDOUGE said about Fydo and Downes2, than looking at my posts, possibly because I am not a regular poster.

Now, what did you mean by"engineer"? Did you mean "get away with daylight robbery" or simply "go through the motions of". If the former, then a Scheme of Arrangement, which is organised by the offeree, enables all shareholders to have a fair stab at stopping it. If the latter, then a bidder could make an offer under the usual takeover rules which would be based on a 90% shareholding vote, and normally shareholders would have the BOD on their side.

what bout i transfered one share in to each of my family members of 18's name, they would then be able to vote and if its done on shareholder numbers enoc wouldnt stand a chance. This is why i don't understand shareholder numbers instead of actual percentage of company held :S...

Seems to me that proxy voters would count as 'shareholders voting'. This would be in our favour as there are many more small investors. If that's the case we definitely would need to have the notice to shareholders worded so that those who wish to send proxy votes against ENOC's bid should send them to a representative of the anti-bid camp and not the BoD/Chairman.

What about proxy votes? Do they count as shareholders voting at the meeting?...
