In an interesting turn of events on Tuesday, Warren Buffett-owned Berkshire Hathaway backed Occidental’s $38 billion-bid for Anadarko. Berkshire commitment of $10 billion aid will greatly boost Occidental’s chances of securing a win in one of the biggest oil-industry takeover battles. However, the help comes at the cost of 100,000 preferred shares and a warrant to buy upto 80 million shares of Occidental at $62.50 apiece in a private offering.
