LTV Corporation Receives $700 Million of Debtor-in-Possession Financing

CLEVELAND, March 5 /PRNewswire/ -- The LTV Corporation
(OTC Bulletin Board: LTVCQ) today announced that it has filed a motion in the
U.S. Bankruptcy Court for an order approving new debtor-in-possession
financing facilities of approximately $700 million. The new facilities will
enable LTV to continue the normal operation of its businesses, maintain the
confidence of customers, suppliers and creditors and make needed capital
improvements. The new facilities also will enable LTV to pursue essential
changes to its operations that will improve the long-term financial health of
the company.
"With these competitive debtor-in-possession financing facilities, we are
now positioned to focus on restructuring LTV's integrated steel operations and
take other actions needed to put this company on a strong, competitive footing
for the future," said William H. Bricker, chairman and chief executive officer
of The LTV Corporation.
The new financing arrangements consist of two components:
1. A Replacement Facility will provide a term loan and letters of credit
totaling about $600 million (the amount outstanding under the previous
working capital agreements) and will resolve the dispute and
litigation concerning the Interim Order issued by the Court on
December 29, 2000. The Facility will be funded by the previous
inventory lenders and receivables lenders. Chase Manhattan Bank will
act as the agent and Abbey National Treasury Services plc will serve
as co-agent.
2. A Working Capital Facility will provide $100 million of additional
financing in the form of a $35 million term loan facility and an
undrawn $65 million revolving credit facility. The Facility is to be
arranged by Ableco Finance LLC.

The new financing arrangements are subject to final documentation and
approval of the bankruptcy court. The Facilities mature on June 30, 2002, or
upon the substantial consummation of a confirmed plan of reorganization,
whichever occurs first.
The LTV Corporation is a manufacturing company with interests in steel and
metal fabrication. LTV's Integrated Steel segment is a leading producer of
high-quality, value-added flat rolled steel, and a major supplier to the
transportation, appliance, electrical equipment and service center industries.
LTV's Metal Fabrication segment consists of LTV Copperweld, the largest
producer of tubular and bimetallic products in North America and VP Buildings,
a leading producer of pre-engineered metal buildings for low-rise commercial
applications.
