WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J.-Almost 90 percent of the shareholders of Ingersoll-Rand voted in favor of a plan to change the company's place of incorporation from New Jersey to Bermuda. The December vote helped pave the way for a newly -formed Bermuda-based firm called Ingersoll-Rand Company Ltd. to become the parent company of IR on Dec. 31.
The company also announced, however, that an owner of 16,000 IR shares intends to block the reincorp- oration. Arguments in the suit filed by the shareholder were set to begin in the U.S. District Court In Newark, N.J., on December 18.
