                    [Title] => LNM Group continues to pursue bid for Nat’l Steel
                    [Summary] => The LNM group will continue to pursue its bid for the National Steel Corp. (NSC) even after reports that majority of NSC’s creditor-banks have accepted the improved offer of Global Infrastructure Holding Ltd. (GIHL).


LNM Holdings marketing manager Eric Tierie said yesterday that LNM is now willing to translate its offer to more outright cash instead of a profit-sharing scheme.

LNM would offer 10 percent more than the P13.25 billion offer of GIHL or P14.575 billion with the amount payable in less than eight years and P2.5-billion payable upfront.

According to sources involved in the talks, 60 percent or a majority of the banks have accepted GIHL’s offer for NSC.

Even those who reportedly had some questions about the length of payment, sources said, did not do anything "negative" to derail the acceptance of GIHL’s offer.

The sources also said a date for the signing of the MOA is now being set.

According to Tierie, LNM is willing to wait for the end of the 90-day "exclusivity" negotiation period of GIHL with the NSC creditor-bank group.
