April 17 (Reuters) - A group of investors in Australian publicly-listed companies called for a review of the listing rules, saying the proposed $8.75 billion acquisition of Azek AZEK.N by James Hardie JHX.AX would negatively impact shareholders' interests.
The investors wrote to the Australian Stock Exchange $(ASX)$ on Wednesday, saying James Hardie's acquisition of Azek would result in a significant dilution of interests for its existing shareholders and "irreversibly change their rights" without any vote.
ASX and James Hardie did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
