May 28 (Bloomberg) -- Negotiators in Berlin working through the night failed to finalize the rescue of General Motors Corp.âs Opel unit after the U.S. automaker demanded an extra 300 million euros ($415 million) in cash. The talks at German Chancellor Angela Merkelâs offices, which included members of her Cabinet and state-level officials, a representative of the U.S, Treasury and corporate executives, narrowed the bidders to Fiat SpA and Magna International Inc. as they haggled over terms. The government hopes to reach a solution by tomorrow, German Economy Minister Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg told reporters at 4:30 a.m. in Berlin. âThis was a bizarre nightâ said Guttenberg. âThe talks were turned upside down by GMâs unexpected demands. We do not have the assurances we need in order to extend a bridge loan.â Detroit-based GM, facing a potential bankruptcy filing, asked for immediate cash assistance from the German government to keep Opel operating. Merkel, seeking re-election on Sept. 27, is under pressure from lawmakers and labor unions to save 25,000 German Opel jobs. âWe had a nasty surprise when this demand turned up literally at 8 p.m.,â an hour before the talks started, said German Finance Minister Peer Steinbrueck. âWe did consider this a bit of an outrage.â http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601087&sid=arO7EMKYHwV8&refer=home Hum...and by the way, we need some pocket money...lousy 415 million USD...
