Question juridique clé
Whether Art. 4B(a)(i) of the shareholder agreement was triggered by the takeover of the parent company E1.
Solution extraite
The clause was not triggered. Its wording covered only a sale or other disposal by E2 of all or a majority of E3 shares, not a change in control at the parent-company level.
Motifs extraits
The text named only E2, while E1 was expressly mentioned elsewhere in the agreement. Given the precise drafting and the parties' business sophistication, there was no reason to depart from the literal meaning by extending the clause to an indirect change of control.
