La protection qu'assure une entente de blocage contre les offres concurrentielles en fait un outil idéal pour protéger certaines opérations négociées ou pour se défendre contre des offres inamicales […] Par exemple, l'acquéreur pourra tenter d'obtenir des options d'achat, y compris les procurations de vote, à l'égard d'actions appartenant à des actionnaires importants. Il pourra aussi tenter d'obtenir de la société visée même des options d'achat d'actions ou d'actifs de celle-ci, qui ne pourront être exercées que si la transaction originale n'est pas consommée. 1, record 2, French, - entente%20de%20blocage
