If Twitter and Elon Musk settle their lawsuit over the deal to buy Twitter, will Musk buy Twitter?

How does it resolve if they have some sort of deal where custody is temporarily transferred to Musk, then given back to shareholders? I don't think this is terribly likely, but I did hear speculation about an after court settlement

@LivInTheLookingGlass What? How would it happen? I am a shareholder and I'll get my $54.20/sh and walk away

Yeah same. In any case it resolves based on whether the merger deal closes - if Musk buys Twitter and then sells it off to someone else, that still counts.

This thread is interesting. If Musk settles and don't buy, he endures the entirety of the financial burden. So I think that only a price cut would work for him.

@MP Yep, this is a good point, it depends on how much of the funds for the purchase he's putting up vs the banks and equity partners. I think he's still on the hook for the biggest chunk of it, so I think a breakup fee of say $10B would still work out in his favor compared to buying at 54.20, but I don't actually know the numbers.
