Toshiba's board will meet on Wednesday to consider offers for its chip unit
from Western Digital and Taiwan's Foxconn in addition to a bid from a
consortium that was previously favorite, a source familiar with the matter
said.

Toshiba is scrambling to sell its flash memory unit to cover losses from its
bankrupt U.S. nuclear business Westinghouse.

But it has struggled to close a 2 trillion yen ($18 billion) deal with the
group it previously chose as preferred bidder—a consortium including
Japanese-government backed funds, Bain Capital and South Korean chip maker SK
Hynix.

原本想趕快跟跟美日韓聯盟敲定這筆案子

Western Digital (WDC, +0.34%), which jointly operates Toshiba's main chip
plant, also wants to buy the business. It sought an injunction to block the
sale to the consortium, arguing that any transaction required its consent.

The legal battle has unnerved the state-backed funds and they want the deal
to be conditional on the conflict with Western Digital being resolved.

Another key point of contention has been a proposal by SK Hynix to help fund
the deal with convertible bonds—a step that could eventually give it an
equity interest in the world's second-largest maker of NAND flash memory
chips.

Western Digital is also offering about 2 trillion yen and would form an
alliance with U.S. private equity firm join KKR & Co as well as the two
Japanese government funds that are part of the preferred bidder group, the
source said on Tuesday.The U.S. company has significantly compromised on its
earlier demands for voting rights, said the source, who requested anonymity
because the talks were confidential.
