If you are an NYSE shareholder – or have knowledge of this transaction – you are encouraged to contact attorney Hamilton Lindley at 877-583-2855 or hlindley@goldfarbbranham.com.
“Under the terms of the agreement, Deutsche Boerse will have a 60% majority stake in this iconic American institution,” securities lawyer Hamilton Lindley said. “Shareholders of NYSE Euronext will receive 0.47 shares for each share in the new company while Deutsche Boerse shareholders will have their shares swapped on a one-for-one basis.
