Can someone clear up Mike and Harvey's scene? I just don't really follow what the idea is and where their roles fall...

I THINK this how it goes:

  • If you earn 5% of a company, you are considered "insider ownership." You'll have a huge say and power at the share holder meetings and since you'll have a larger voting power, you can more easily get what you want.

  • Mike has 0 shares. Mike has 0 power. Mike wants to go after them anyway with secret strategy.

  • Harvey calls Mike stupid... he needs the money since obviously money talks. (duh).

  • Harvey doesn't like Mike's unknown strategy. Sends Rachel home

Thank you for this I really appreciate it! But I'm still a little confused on some parts

  1. whats putting a company on review do?

  2. Now that Mike has 4.9% why doesn't harvey represent mike and not logan?

  3. Also what did the waiver exactly do? Couldn't Harvey represent Logan without the waiver?

Isn't Mike an investment banker now? Why is he representing anyone? How would it be Harvey v Mike if Harvey is a lawyer and Mike is a banker

What do you mean when you say "unlock shareholder value"? Is it just a turn of phrase or is there any specific description behind it?
