Thanks for these examples. Going for a relatively early sale/acquisition/acquihire returns capital to the seed investors, so not really quite the scenario that I was thinking of, but the Olark example is very interesting.

I wonder whether they've paid dividends to YC?

In the instances of those acquisitions, it was purely the choice of the founders as the investors have no control over that decision.
