* Chairman proposes to take co pvt for $360 mln

April 29 - Chinese company Puda Coal said its Chairman Ming Zhao, who is facing an internal probe into alleged unauthorized transactions in shares of a unit, has proposed to take the company private for about $360 million.
Puda shareholders will get up to $12 per share. The stock, which was halted on April 11, last traded at $6 on the American Stock Exchange.
Puda shares were halted after the company said it will investigate the allegations raised in a recent article alleging various unauthorized transactions in the shares of a subsidiary company, Shanxi Coal, by Zhao.
Chairman Ming Zhao said the deal will be financed with a combination of existing cash on hand and external financing sources.
The company's audit committee will review and evaluate the proposal, the company said.
