NEW YORK (Reuters) - General Motors Corp's bondholders on Friday said they remained opposed to the company's proposed bond exchange, a position which threatens to send GM into bankruptcy soon, while the Obama administration said it would not extend talks.
A day after the automaker reached a preliminary restructuring deal with unions, GM's biggest bondholders, with some $27 billion in unsecured debt, still intend to reject GM's offer for a 10 percent equity stake, a spokesman for the creditors said.
