deal structure

[Aaron Azelton]

I’m a little confused about the deal structure in the case.  It says the 400bn would be for 100% of the company, yet TPG would only purchase 49% of the equity?  So do the brothers get the whole 400bn then?

My view on this is that TPG needs to buy the whole company. No one can do business with this messy brothers……  So I take it as TPG is eating the whole pie by itself … these are the new terms…otherwise TPG is not interested…..

 

Thanks,
