Unlike in the Netherlands and Germany, there is no appraisal right available in the situation of a cross-border merger involving an English disappearing Ltd and a private limited company governed by the laws of another European country. Unlike in Germany and the Netherlands, in this situation, a minority shareholder who does not consent to the resolution for cross-border merger is not entitled to exit the company.1 For this situation, the English legislator did not introduce specific rules regarding the protection of the minority shareholders. Nonetheless, it is plausible that in specific cases of unfürness, an English court may direct that protection has to be provided to minority shareholders.
