AMSTERDAM (Reuters) - Dutch food ordering company Takeaway.com said on Thursday its shareholders had approved plans for the company's proposed 5.9 billion pound ($7.7 billion) acquisition of British peer Just Eat PLC<JE.L>.

In a statement, Takeaway said its plan for an all-share merger had been approved at an extraordinary meeting of shareholders in Amsterdam.

Takeaway is vying with rival Prosus <PRX.AS> to buy Just Eat. Takeaway said on Dec. 19 that it has assurances from 46% of Just Eat shareholders that they will tender their shares to its all-share offer, currently worth 879 pence. Prosus bid 800 pence in cash per Just Eat share.

The tender period for both offers ends on Jan 10.
