Example 26.6 (Where holding out pays)
In the tree of Figure 26.2, holding out is worth 33.75 if no one tenders, 34.73 at 60% participation and 38.97 at 74%, against 34.85 for tendering. It pays from a participation of 60.9%. With a 75% aggregated clause, at 75% or more the holdout is bound and receives the new bonds alone, 29.85: the band in which holding out pays is 60.9% to 75%. Without a clause it pays at any participation above 60.9%, and at 90% it is worth 58.72 (Figure 26.3).
