LONDON (Reuters) - Shareholders in miner Xstrata XTA.L will vote on a $33 billon proposed takeover by trader Glencore (GLEN.L) on November 20, Glencore said in a statement on Thursday.
The vote will take place ten months after Glencore first approached Xstrata. The deal is back on after the commodities trader in September bowed to investor pressure and raised its bid to 3.05 new shares for every Xstrata share from an earlier ratio of 2.8.
Under a complex structure of votes, Xstrata investors will be able to express their views on a controversial retention plan without endangering the merger.
Glencore will also hold a shareholder meeting in connection with the merger on the same day.
