What did Verizon buy? (YHOO)

What was part of the deal, and what was not?

>The Verizon deal would transform Yahoo into a holding company, with a 15 percent stake in Chinese e-commerce company Alibaba Group Holding Ltd and a 35.5 percent interest in Yahoo Japan Corp?

The percentages in Alibaba and Yahoo! Japan were not part of the deal, were they?
