Microsoft would provide $5 billion to the management duo and they would raise another $5 billion to take control of 30% of Yahoo Microsoft would obtain a 10 year operating agreement to manage the Yahoo search business as part of the deal and a call option to buy the Yahoo search business for $20 billion.
