Zenith Electronics Gets US$125 Million Loan From U.S. Banks
|
July 3, 1998 (SEOUL) -- Zenith Electronics Corp., based in Glenview,
Illinois and owned by LG Electronics Inc., signed a US$125 million
credit agreement on July 2 with a U.S. banking group led by
Citicorp of New York.

LG Electronics said the large loan will help fund Zenith's working
capital.
Zenith Electronics, which suffered from declining sales, filed for
reorganization in May 1997 in a bid to avoid bankruptcy and
announced restructuring plans involving the sales of its monitor
and computer network units.
