US oil and gas company Occidental said its updated $38bn (\u00a329.02bn) bid to take over Anadarko Petroleum was designed to make it more attractive than a rival offer from Chevron by removing the requirement for a shareholder vote.<\/p>\n

Occidental increased the cash component of its offer to 78 per cent on Sunday, meaning the deal could go ahead without a shareholder vote and allowing for \u201cclarity of closing\u201d.<\/p>\n

Occidental chief executive Vicki Hollub said Chevrons $33bn merger offer had been considered superior to Occidentals as it would not require a Chevron shareholder vote.<\/p>\n

Hollub said the company did not want to bypass the vote but said it was in shareholders best interest to close the deal without increasing the price.<\/p>\n

On Sunday Hollub said in a letter to Anadarkos directors that the revised proposal does not require an Occidental shareholder vote \u201cwhich has been repeatedly cited as the explanation for why you previously chose Chevrons $65 offer over our $76 offer.\u201d<\/p>\n

She added that the updated bid represented a premium of 23.3 per cent over Chevrons offer.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe remain perplexed at your apparent resistance to obtaining far more value for Anadarko shareholders which has been expressed clearly through our interactions over the last week,\u201d Hollub said in the letter.<\/p>\n
