MUNICH, Aug 12 (Reuters) - Financial investor General
Atlantic has tendered its 2.4% stake in German media group
ProSiebenSat.1 to Czech investment company PPF, two
people familiar with the matter told Reuters on Tuesday.
By taking PPF's cash offer of 7 euros ($8.17) per share for
ProSieben, General Atlantic is going against the endorsement of
ProSieben's management for a higher rival offer by
MFE-MediaForEurope, which is partly paid in MFE shares,
indicating that MFE faces some difficulties in its bid for
control over ProSieben.
General Atlantic, PPF and ProSieben declined to comment. MFE
did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
