Here, with 200,000 shares outstanding, you must control the votes of 100,001 shares. b.With cumulative voting, the directors are elected in order of the total number of votes each receives. With 200,000 shares outstanding and five directors to be elected, there will be a total of 1,000,000 votes cast. To ensure you can elect at least one director, you must ensure that someone else can elect at most four directors. That is, you must have enough votes so that, even if the others split their votes evenly among five other candidates, the number of votes your candidate gets would be higher by one.Let x be the number of votes controlled by you, so that others control (1,000,000 - x) votes. To elect one director:Solving, we find x = 166,666.8 votes, or 33,333.4 shares. Because there are no fractional shares, we need 33,334 shares.15x000,000,1x +-=。
