Chevron Corp (CVX.N) has settled a lawsuit against its proposed $3.2 billion Atlas Energy (ATLS.O) takeover by agreeing to pay an extra 10 cents per share to non-director shareholders in the U.S. natural gas producer. Excluding the approximately 4 percent of shares held by directors, the payment will total more than $7 million. The original Chevron offer, which will be put to a vote by Atlas shareholders in Philadelphia on Feb. 16, was $38.25 per share in cash plus a distribution of units in Atlas Pipeline Holdings (AHD.N) worth about $5.09 per share.
