After Perseus Mining (PRU AU) fielded a scrip option for 17.8%-held Predictive Discovery (PDI AU), I questioned whether Robex Resources (RXR AU) would exercise its matching rights. I was wrong. 
Robex has "lifted its bid", now 7.862 PDI for every Robex share. Under the revised Offer Robex will own 46.5% of the combined entity, down from 49%.
PDI considers the new terms to be superior to Perseus' tilt. Apparently, so do several of PDI's largest shareholders.  Perseus has now terminated its binding proposal. Out of the picture?
