““The measure is not aimed at obstrueing legitimate takeover bids. In some instances a change in management will prove a welcome boon for shareholder (s) . . . and . it may be necessary if the company is to survive. I have taken extreme caution with this legislation to balance the scales equally to protect corporation, management, and shareholders . . . Every effort has been made to avoid tipping the balance of regulatory burden in favor of management or in favor of the offeror. The purpose of this bill is to require full and fair disclosure for the benefit of stockholders while at the same time providing the offeror and management equal opportunity to fairly present their ease.” 113 Cong. Rec. 854-855.”
