(Reuters) -One of ProSiebenSat.1's two top shareholders, Czech investment group PPF, said on Wednesday that it has received approval by Germany's financial watchdog for its all-cash bid for more shares of the German media company.

PPF is ProSieben's second-biggest shareholder after MFE-MediaforEurope, the company controlled by Italy's Berlusconi family. PPF has offered to buy ProSieben shares at a 21% premium to the price implied by a bid from MFE, aiming to reach a holding of up to 29.99% holding.

The acceptance period of PPF's offer starts on Wednesday and ends on August 13, the company said in a statement.

Under German law, the acceptance period for MFE's offer will now also end at midnight on the same day.

PPF said it seeks proportionate Supervisory Board representation.
