3 July 2019business combination▼ BadMajor

The amendment added a litigation section the original did not have: two Anadarko stockholders had demanded inspection of Anadarko's books and records under Delaware law in May, and on 30 May Carl Icahn's High River, Icahn Partners Master Fund and Icahn Partners -- Occidental stockholders, not Anadarko's -- filed in the Delaware Court of Chancery for inspection of Occidental's records. Occidental answered on 14 June. These are books-and-records actions rather than challenges to the merger itself, but they mark the point at which Occidental's own shareholders started contesting the deal.

7 June 2019business combination● NeutralMajor

Occidental registered the stock leg of its purchase of Anadarko: $59.00 in cash plus 0.2934 of an Occidental share per Anadarko share, a fixed ratio with no collar, so Anadarko holders carry the full risk of Occidental's share price between signing and closing. The pro formas set out what comes with it -- up to $21.8 billion of committed bridge borrowing to fund the cash, Berkshire Hathaway's $10 billion of preferred stock and warrants, and a binding agreement to sell Anadarko's Algerian, Ghanaian, Mozambican and South African businesses to Total for $8.8 billion once the merger closes. The break fee is a mutual 3.95% of Anadarko's implied equity value.
