Specific performance

An order of a court which requires a party to perform a specific act, which will often be what is stated in a contract and which the party against whom the order is made has so far failed to perform. It is an alternative to awarding damages, and is classed as an equitable remedy. While specific performance can be in the form of any type of forced action, it is usually used to complete a previously established transaction, ensuring that the innocent party to the contract receives what they had expected to receive from the transaction.

Takeover

An offer made by tender setting out a proposal by one company to purchase the shares of another company, in order to acquire control of it. Takeovers can be ‘friendly’ or ‘hostile’. A ‘friendly’ takeover is an acquisition that is approved by the management. Before a bidder makes an offer for another company, it usually first informs the company’s board of directors. If the board of directors considers that accepting the offer best serves the shareholders, it recommends that the offer be accepted. A ‘hostile’ takeover allows the bidder to take over a company whose management is unwilling to agree. The takeover becomes hostile the moment the board of directors rejects the offer but the bidder continues to pursue it.

The latter method is sometimes called the triple talaq and is the method most commonly used. Once the talaq has been pronounced three times the husband and wife cannot be married again until the wife has married and divorced another husband.
