LUXEMBOURG, Nov 5 (Reuters) - Shareholders in Arcelor
<CELR.PA> gave a last clearance on Monday for the merger of
their company with ArcelorMittal, the world's largest
steelmaker.
Investors attending a shareholder meeting in Luxembourg
voted in favour of a series of resolutions needed to complete
the deal.
Arcelor <CELR.PA> shareholders in June 2006 accepted a 26
billion euro ($37 billion) friendly offer from Mittal after an
acrimonious takeover battle, but investors representing 6
percent of the stock decided not to tender their shares.
