The battle over the effort to take Dell private has been brewing for months. A vote is scheduled for Thursday. T. Rowe Price and Yachtman Funds are mentioned among prominent players.
WSJ Excerpt: "People familiar with the Dell board's strategy said advisers have discussed adjourning the election if it becomes clear the deal will be defeated. Adjournment would give the buyout group and Dell's board time to convince stockholders to change their votes, or to urge holders to cast ballots if they hadn't voted."

Wonder if T. Rowe Price had any reaction to this or if, perhaps, they modified their opposition before the final vote? Couldn't find anything.
