Ask HN: What happened to Twitter poison pill?
Similar thing happened to me when AMD acquired Xilinx. I got AMD stock and some cash. These types of transactions are usually automated, by an entity like DTCC I would guess.

Didn't XLNX turn into AMD directly at some fixed rate?

The exchange rate was not an integer. If you have to receive a fractional number of shares it’s rounded down and you get a cash payment for the rest.
