Japan's third-biggest oil refiner is calling another shareholder vote on Dec. 14 to seek approval to discourage an activist group led by Yoshiaki Murakami from increasing its stake to 24.56% from its current 20%. In June, a previous vote on a poison pill to dilute the activists' stake if they buy more shares without following set procedures succeeded. "We want to ask shareholders whose plans can boost the shareholder value, ours or Murakami-san?"
