If you’re like the [[JC]] you will be wondering how a single holder could acquire ''more'' than 100 per cent of the extant {{eqderivprov|Shares}} of an {{eqderivprov|Issuer}}. But, to an [[ISDA ninja]], that really is to rather miss the point. We are not talking about the practical, but the conceptually possible. Perhaps in a parallel universe, where normal rules of Euclidean geometry don’t apply. Or down a gravity well or something.

Sleep assured that, however conceptually difficult — ''logically'' difficult — such a feat might be, if someone ''does'' manage it then {{icds}} has your — or her — back.

Actually, come to think of it, they don’t, because an acquisition of more than 100% would not count as a {{eqderivprov|Tender Offer}} at all. 
[[Eheu]]. I suppose we had all better hope and that normal rules of Euclidean geometry continue to apply for the time being.
Also, is not clear what is meant to happen if the Tender Offer relates to ''exactly'' 100 per cent of the outstanding {{eqderivprov|Shares}}.
