Codemasters Group Holdings PLC said Monday that it has agreed to a 945 million-pound ($1.25 million) cash takeover from Electronic Arts Inc., and has therefore withdrawn its recommendation for the offer from Take-Two Interactive Software Inc.

Under the deal, accepting shareholders of the U.K. videogames developer and publisher will get 604 pence for each share held. The offer price is a 13% premium to Friday's closing price of 534 pence.

"The board of Codemasters firmly believes the company would benefit from EA's knowledge, resources and extensive global scale--both overall and specifically within the racing sector," Chairman Gerhard Florin said.

On Nov. 10, Codemasters agreed to a GBP759 million takeover offer from Take-Two. Under that deal, accepting shareholders were due to get 120 pence in cash and 0.2834 new Take-Two shares for each Codemasters share held.
