Tender Offer
An offer to purchase some or all of shareholders' shares in a corporation. The price offered is usually at a premium to the market price.

Investopedia Says:
Tender offers may be friendly or unfriendly. Securities and Exchange Commission laws require any corporation or individual acquiring 5% of a company to disclose information to the SEC, the target company and the exchange.
