This paper theoretically illustrates that exchange and conditional options are intertwined in M&A transactions. That is, this study illustrates that an exercised exchange option is simultaneously linked to a conditional option in M&A. A conditional-exchange option is derived from a Radon-Nikodym derivative. The results illustrate that a conditional-exchange option is applicable to American and European options. In addition, the formula is usable both in bull and bear market conditions.
