(Company corrects JULY 9 filing to show Paulson reduced (not increased) stake)

July 9 (Reuters) - Paulson & Co has reduced its overall interest in Britain's Premier Foods Plc (Frankfurt: A1JWNB - news) to just over 6 percent from 7.5 percent, the hedge fund firm led by billionaire investor John Paulson said on Monday.

The move comes ahead of a shareholder meeting next week which could determine the fate of Gavin Darby, chief executive of the maker of Oxo cubes and Mr Kipling cakes. (Reporting by Sangameswaran S in Bengaluru; editing by Keith Weir)
