12 Pac Man defense
In a classic Pac Man defense, Elf responded to TOTAL FINA's unsolicited offer with a $55 billion counter offer. Jones Day worked with TOTAL FINA to prevent Elf from holding a special shareholders meeting to increase the company's capital to pay for its TOTAL FINA offer - a critical step in defeating the Pac Man offer. Negotiations between the two companies ended when Elf finally accepted an increased offer of $58 billion from TOTAL FINA.
