If you own the share (exercised the option to buy it, were granted a share, what-have-you), you'll get a letter once the deal is finalized. If they were bought for $100m, you'll likely get a letter saying that your share is worth $0.

Ok thank you for explaining! Curious about the $0 bit though

Depends on the deal, and how many shares of Shazam has been issued. If its a straight up 100 mill deal, and there are 1 mill shares, and you have 1 stock, well you get 100 usd. But the deal might be structured way more advanced, or Shazam might have a lot of debt etc.
