Friday 8 July 2005
LONDON (AFX) – The Royal Dutch Shell group of companies said they reserve the right to lower the minimum acceptance level for the share exchange that creates the unified Royal Dutch Shell PLC from 95 pct to as low as 75 pct.
Shareholders of both Royal Dutch Petroleum Co NV and Shell Transport and Trading Co PLC have already approved the move by overwhelming majorities.
The group said today’s announcement is not an indication of the current level of acceptances on the exchange offer and does not mean the minimum acceptance level will actually be reduced.
‘Any such reduction will only be made on or after 18 July 2005’ when the existing offer closes, the group said in a statement, adding: ‘This announcement is made in order to comply with US regulatory requirements.’

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
