PETALING JAYA: Barely a week after aborting their original offer, the parties attempting a takeover of Padiberas Nasional Bhd (Bernas) have put a second offer on the table, but with no changes to the price tag of RM3.70 cash per share.

In a filing yesterday, rice distributor Bernas said it had received an unconditional takeover offer from Perspective Lane (M) Sdn Bhd, Kelana Ventures Sdn Bhd, Seaport Terminal (Johore) Sdn Bhd and Acara Kreatif Sdn Bhd to acquire the remaining 76.7 million shares, or 16.31%, of the company.
