    APA Group (ASX:APA)has sweetened its cash-and-scrip takeover offer for Hastings Diversified Utilities Fund (ASX:HDF).



    The new increased offer comes with an implied value $2.56 and has been received just one week after Hastings Diversified Utilities Fund recommended its shareholders agree to a rival bid from Pipeline Partners Australia.



    Pipeline Partners Australia is offering Hastings Diversified Utilities Fund $2.325 cash per share.



    APA chairman Len Bleasel says APA's offer is clearly superior to the Pipeline Partners Australia offer and it looks forward to receiving a recommendation by the independent directors of Hastings.



    Hastings Diversified reported net loss of $29.9 million in the 2011 financial year.
