Ejecting The Unwilling Minority Shareholder

Striking a bargain for an exit with an unwilling minority shareholder is usually a challenge and does turn out to be a painstakingly arduous task if litigated by a reluctant minority stakeholder. In unlisted companies, the majority shareholder may be driven by a variety of reasons to squeeze-out the minority such as for obtaining greater operational flexibility (and smoother decision-making) or to limit information flow to a minority shareholder.
