Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
All of the factors mentioned (existence of contracts, attendance at annual general meetings, level of dilution and disorganization or apathy of the remaining shareholders) need to be examined in order to determine the existence of power and the size of the investor's voting interest. None of these factors can be considered in isolation in determining the investor's power over the investee company.
