Shareholders of the Abu Dhabi-based technology company Alpha Data have vetoed a recommendation by the board of directors to acquire 18 units in Addax Tower for AED 41 million ($11 million). 

The units are currently occupied by the company under a lease arrangement and are used as office space. The board had proposed purchasing the units to convert the leased premises into owned property, thereby increasing the company’s fixed assets.
