According to information released by the Reuters, it seems that various shareholders and owners of investment company shares Dell have shown some concern to the terms of the agreement proposed by the consortium of buyers formed by Silver Lake and Michael Dell to transform society in a private company with the release from trade.
The agreement must now be able to pass two milestones: the approval of the guarantors of the market and the opinion of the shareholders will be expressed by a simple majority vote. Some of them, especially those with greater participation, have expressed some reservations on the agreement or have already said they would vote against the offer.

There is also to be considered that with the spread of rumors about the negotiations, various high-risk investors who purchased shares Dell, hoping for a favorable outcome agreement. Overall it has been estimated that this type of investors are in possession of 20% of the company, and may try to get together to aim for a higher bid to get a better return on investment. However, according to well-informed sources close to the consortium of buyers, it seems that Silver Lake and Michael Dell did not have any intention to draw a higher bid.
