LONDON, Feb 9 (Reuters) - First Abu Dhabi Bank (FAB.AD) (FAB), the United Arab Emirates' biggest lender, could renew a potential offer for Britain's Standard Chartered (STAN.L), once lock-up rules from its previous aborted bid expire, Bloomberg News reported on Thursday.

StanChart shares rose as much as 9% on the news report.

A StanChart spokesperson declined to comment on the report, while FAB could not immediately be reached for comment.
