“The binding offer of $1.2 billion submitted by Erwin Singh Braich / SPGP Holdings continues to be under discussion,”it said in a regulatory filing on Tuesday, adding that the bank will continue to evaluate other potential investors to raise capital up to $2 billion.

Another round of meeting of the board is likely soon.
