The Occidental merger closed on August 8, 2019, and Anadarko is now an indirect wholly owned Occidental subsidiary. Stockholders had approved it that day (374.8m for, 1.27m against). Each Anadarko share became $59.00 cash plus 0.2934 of an Occidental share, and the stock stops trading on the NYSE before the open on August 9. Anadarko ended its $3.0bn JPMorgan revolver with no loans outstanding, all directors and officers left their roles, and a Form 15 is expected to end its reporting. Holders rejected the advisory merger-related executive pay vote (106.4m for, 267.3m against), though it was non-binding. This resolves the pending merger thread (the Chevron deal having been terminated).

Anadarko disclosed a stockholder class action filed July 23, 2019 in Delaware federal court (Thompson v. Anadarko) alleging inadequate proxy disclosures about the Occidental merger. Anadarko says the claims lack merit but added extra proxy disclosures (adviser valuation details and management forecasts) to moot them. The merger terms are unchanged.

Anadarko sent stockholders its final proxy statement for the Occidental merger ($59.00 cash plus 0.2934 Occidental share per Anadarko share), with a special meeting set for August 8, 2019 and a July 11 record date. Based on Occidental's July 8 price the offer was worth about $73.46 per share, roughly 57% above Anadarko's April 11 close (before the Chevron deal) and about 3% below its May 8 close. The board unanimously recommends a vote in favour, and former Anadarko holders would own about 16% of Occidental. Approval needs a majority of outstanding shares.
10 May 2019business combination▲ GoodMajor
On May 9, 2019 Anadarko ended its April 11 Chevron merger agreement, paid Chevron a $1 billion termination fee, and signed a new merger agreement with Occidental. Each Anadarko share would become $59.00 in cash plus 0.2934 of an Occidental share. This replaces the Chevron deal (which was $16.25 cash plus 0.3869 Chevron shares). The deal still needs Anadarko stockholder approval, US antitrust clearance, an effective Occidental S-4 and NYSE listing, with an outside date of February 9, 2020 (May 9, 2020 for antitrust). Anadarko would owe Occidental a $1 billion fee in certain cases, and Occidental would reimburse the Chevron fee if Anadarko terminates over an uncured Occidental breach. Gwin, Fink and McMillian were each approved for $1 million transaction bonuses.

This filing gives the terms of the April 11, 2019 merger agreement with Chevron: each Anadarko share converts into $16.25 in cash plus 0.3869 of a Chevron share, with Anadarko becoming a Chevron subsidiary. It still needs Anadarko stockholder approval and U.S. antitrust clearance; either side can end it if it is not done by January 11, 2020 (extendable to April 11, 2020 for antitrust), and Anadarko would owe a $1 billion fee in certain cases such as accepting a superior proposal. The board also raised executive severance and change-of-control protections, adopted a Delaware forum-selection by-law and postponed the May 14, 2019 annual meeting. The deal is pending, so shareholders have not yet been bought out.
12 Apr 2019business combination▲ GoodMajor
On April 11, 2019, Anadarko agreed to be acquired by Chevron; the press release says Anadarko shareholders get 0.3869 Chevron shares plus $16.25 in cash per Anadarko share, valued at $65 per share, or $33 billion in total. The deal is not yet complete: the filing only attaches the press release, an investor presentation and an email to employees, and the full terms come in the separate merger-agreement filing.

Lender commitments were also reallocated between existing lenders and a new lender. This continues the pattern of extending the facility seen in earlier years.
