This Restated Statement on Schedule 13D sets forth the amended and
restated text of a Statement on Schedule 13D, dated July 8, 1993, originally
filed by the Reporting Persons with the Commission, after giving effect to
Amendment No. 1, dated August 5, 1994 and Amendment No. 2, dated November 15,
1994, each as filed by the Reporting Persons with the Commission, and to the
further amendments being made by this filing.
RESTATED SCHEDULE 13D
Item 1. Security and Issuer.
-------------------
The security to which this statement on Schedule 13D relates is the
Common Stock, par value $.50 per share (the "Common Stock") of The LTV
Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("LTV"), whose principal executive office is
located at 25 West Prospect Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44115.
The persons reporting ownership of Common Stock on this statement on
Schedule 13D own beneficially, in the aggregate, only 3,329,462 shares of Common
Stock. In addition, however, they may be deemed to be the beneficial owners of
2,925,688 of the shares of Common Stock reported in Item 5 by virtue of their
beneficial ownership of an aggregate amount of 500,000 shares (the "Series B
Preferred Shares") of the Company's Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par
value $1.00 per share (the "Series B Preferred Stock").
Item 2. Identity and Background.
-----------------------
(a), (b), (c) and (f). Pursuant to a Joint Filing Agreement (a copy
of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 1), dated July 8, 1993, this statement on
Schedule 13D is being filed by SMI America, Inc., a Delaware corporation
("SMIA"), Sumitomo Metal USA Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("SMU") and
Sumitomo Metal Industries, Ltd., a Japanese corporation ("SMI" and, together
with SMIA and SMU, the "Reporting Persons"). SMIA is a wholly-owned direct sub
sidiary of SMU, and SMU is a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of SMI.
SMIA was formed to provide a vehicle for an investment of
$200,000,000 in LTV, consisting of $50,000,000 for 500,000 shares (the "Series A
Preferred Shares") of the Company's Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par
value $1.00 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), which were converted on
June 28, 1994 into shares of Common Stock (see Item 3 below), $50,000,000 for
the Series B Preferred Shares and $100,000,000 for the Series A Senior Secured
Notes of LTV in the principal amount of $100,000,000 (the "Series A Notes"),
which were redeemed on October 15, 1997 and not converted into stock. SMU is a
holding company for certain
<PAGE>
CUSIP No.: 501921 10 0 Page 6 of 21 Pages
of SMI's investments in the United States. The principal business of SMI is
manufacturing various steel and other metal products.
The address of the principal business and principal offices of SMIA
and SMU is 8750 West Bryn Mawr Avenue, Suite 1000, Chicago, Illinois 60631. The
address of the principal business and principal offices of SMI is 1-3, Ohtemachi
1-chome, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 100, Japan.
The name, business address, present principal occupation or
employment and citizenship of each executive officer and director of SMIA, SMU
and SMI are set forth on Annex A attached hereto, which is incorporated herein
by reference.
(d) and (e). During the last five years, neither any Reporting
Person nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any person identified on
Annex A has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic
violations or similar misdemeanors) or was a party to a civil proceeding of a
judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdic tion and as a result of
which any such person was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order
enjoining future violations or, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject
to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to
such laws.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
-------------------------------------------------
On June 28, 1993, pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement (a
copy of which is attached hereto as part of Exhibit 2), dated as of May 26,
1993, by and among LTV, as issuer, LTV Steel Company, Inc., as guarantor, and
SMIA, as purchaser and as agent, as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated as of June
28, 1993 (a copy of which is attached hereto as the rest of Exhibit 2) (as so
amended, the "Securities Purchase Agreement"), LTV issued, and SMIA acquired
from LTV, the Series A Preferred Shares, the Series B Preferred Shares and the
Series A Notes for an aggregate purchase price of $200,000,000 (the "Purchase
Price").
Of the funds used by SMIA to pay the Purchase Price, $140,000,000
were obtained by SMIA from loans made in the ordinary course of business by
banks and trust companies. Certain of such loans were represented by
<PAGE>
CUSIP No.: 501921 10 0 Page 7 of 21 Pages
promissory notes, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10, 11, 12,
13, 14 and 15, and are incorporated herein by reference. Two of such loans, in
the amounts of $13,440,000 and $8,960,000 and due September 30, 1993 and June
30, 1994, respectively, were not made pursuant to any written agreement. All
such loans were guaranteed by SMU pursuant to written guaranties, copies of
which are attached hereto as Exhibits 16, 17, 18, and 19, and are incorporated
herein by reference, and the lenders thereof have received certain letters of
awareness from SMI, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 20, 21, 22
and 23, and are incorporated herein by reference. Of the loans obtained by SMAI,
$100,000,000 in principal amount were subsequently refinanced by the
Export-Import Bank of Japan ("JEXIM"). The JEXIM loan was prepaid on October 15,
1997, when the Series A Notes were redeemed, as described above. Of the total
$200,000,000 of funds obtained by SMAI to pay the Purchase Price, $60,000,000
were obtained by SMIA from a capital contribution made by SMU to SMIA. Of the
funds used by SMU to make such capital contribution to SMIA, $60,000,000 were
obtained from a capital contribution made by SMI to SMU. All of the funds used
by SMI to make such capital contribution to SMU were obtained by SMI from its
working capital.
Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations relating to the Series A
Preferred Stock and attached hereto as Exhibit 3 (the "Series A Certificate of
Designations"), on June 28, 1994 all of the Series A Preferred Shares, together
with accrued dividends thereon, were mandatorily converted into 3,328,220 shares
of Common Stock. As provided in the Series A Certificate of Designations, the
conversion price of the Series A Preferred Shares was calculated as the average
daily market price of the Common Stock for the twenty trading days prior to June
28, 1994.
The Certificate of Designations relating to the Series B Preferred
Stock and attached hereto as Exhibit 4 (the "Series B Certificate of
Designations") provides that at any time on or after June 28, 1994, each holder
of Series B Preferred Shares shall have the right, at its option, to convert any
or all of such Shares into such number of shares of Common Stock as is equal to
the product of the number of Series B Preferred Shares being so converted
multiplied by the quotient of (i) $100 divided by (ii) the conversion price then
in effect. The conversion price for the Series B
<PAGE>
CUSIP No.: 501921 10 0 Page 8 of 21 Pages
Preferred Shares, subject to adjustment for certain dilutive events, is $17.09.
As provided in the Series B Certificate of Designations, the conversion price of
the Series B Preferred Shares was calculated as 115% of the average daily market
price of the Common Stock for the twenty trading days prior to the 180th day to
occur after June 28, 1993.
The Securities Purchase Agreement provided that at any time on or
after June 29, 1994 and before the close of business on June 28, 2003, each
holder of Series A Notes would have the right, at its option, to convert any or
all of the principal amount of such Notes into such number of shares of Common
Stock as was equal to the quotient of (i) the principal amount being converted,
together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, divided by (ii) the
conversion price then in effect. The conversion price for the Series A Notes,
subject to adjustment for certain dilutive events, was subsequently determined
to be $19.50 (being 115% of the average daily market price of the Common Stock
for the twenty trading days prior to the 270th day to occur after June 28,
1993). This would have represented, upon full conversion of the Series A Notes
(and assuming no such dilutive events occurred), a total issuance to the holders
of the Series A Notes of 5,128,205 shares of Common Stock. The Securities
Purchase Agreement provided as well for the possibility that LTV could redeem,
at its option, all (in whole but not in part) of the Series A Notes, at a
redemption price stated in the Securities Purchase Agreement as a percentage of
the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Series A
Notes. On October 15, 1997, LTV exercised this option and redeemed all of the
Series A Notes, for a total redemption price equal to $110,625,000 (being the
sum of (i) 106.375% of the principal amount of the Series A Notes outstanding,
plus (ii) accrued and unpaid interest thereon as of such date).
The 210 and 1,032 shares of Common Stock acquired by SMI and
Sumitec, Inc., respectively, pursuant to the plan of reorganization referred to
in Item 5, were acquired in exchange for certain unsecured claims of SMI and
Sumitec, Inc.

Subject to the terms of the LTV Charter, the Reporting Persons may

Preferred Shares or shares of Common Stock in the open market or in privately

Except as described in the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Series

preceding paragraph, no Reporting Person has any present plans or proposals that

description of certain understandings between the Reporting Persons and LTV with
respect to securities of LTV.
<PAGE>
CUSIP No.: 501921 10 0 Page 11 of 21 Pages
Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.
------------------------------------
(a) On June 28, 1993, LTV issued to SMIA and SMIA acquired from LTV
(i) the Series A Preferred Shares, (ii) the Series B Preferred Shares and (iii)
the Series A Notes. On June 28, 1994, the Series A Preferred Shares, together
with accrued dividends thereon, were mandatorily converted into 3,328,220 shares
of Common Stock. On October 15, 1997, LTV redeemed all of the Series A Notes, as
described in Item 3 above. The conversion price of the Series B Preferred Shares
is currently $17.09. Holders of Series B Preferred Shares are entitled to vote
with the holders of Common Stock based on the number of shares of Common Stock
that they would be entitled to receive on conversion of the Series B Preferred
Stock held by them. As a result, the Reporting Persons are entitled, as holders
of the Series B Preferred Shares, to 2,925,688 votes.
Accordingly, each of the Reporting Persons is or may be deemed,
based on SMIA's ownership of (i) the 3,328,220 shares of Common Stock issued
with respect to the Series A Preferred Shares and (ii) the Series B Preferred
Shares, SMU's direct ownership of SMIA and SMI's indirect ownership of SMIA, to
be the beneficial owners of the equivalent of 6,255,150 shares of Common Stock,
and such possible deemed ownership is reported by this statement on Schedule
13D.
Based on information provided by LTV to the Reporting Persons, as of
September 30, 1997, there were 114,311,171 shares of Common Stock that could be
deemed outstanding on a fully diluted basis. For the purpose of determining the
Reporting Persons' percentage ownership of the class of Common Stock,
102,742,683 shares of Common Stock may be deemed outstanding (which excludes (i)
8,317,138 shares in respect of which Series A Warrants currently exist that are
immediately exercisable by persons other than the Reporting Persons, but have
not yet been exercised, (ii) 1,008,327 shares in respect of which options exist
that are immediately exercisable, but have not yet been exercised and (iii)
2,243,023 shares in respect of which options exist that are not currently
exercisable). Accordingly, if the Series B Preferred Shares were deemed to be
the equivalent of an aggregate of 2,925,688 shares of Common Stock, they and the
3,328,220 shares of Common Stock issued in connection with the conversion of the
Series A
<PAGE>
CUSIP No.: 501921 10 0 Page 12 of 21 Pages
Preferred Shares would represent 6.1% of the shares outstanding as of September
30, 1997 (and 5.5%, on a fully diluted basis).
On June 28, 1993, simultaneously with the closing of the Securities
Purchase Agreement, LTV and certain of its subsidiaries emerged from Chapter 11
proceedings. Pursuant to the term of the plan of reorganization of LTV and such
subsidiaries (the "POR"), LTV has issued or will issue shares of Common Stock or
warrants to acquire shares of Common Stock to certain holders of claims against
LTV and such subsidiaries. On July 6, 1993, SMI received 210 shares of Common
Stock from LTV pursuant to the terms of the POR. On July 7, 1993, Sumitec, Inc.,
a majority owned subsidiary of SMU, received 1,032 shares of Common Stock from
LTV pursuant to the terms of the POR.
Except for the ownership and possible deemed ownership described
above, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting
Persons, any person listed on Annex A, beneficially owns any shares of Common
Stock.
(b) Subject to the LTV Charter, the Securities Purchase Agreement
and the Side Letter, SMIA has the sole power to vote and dispose of the shares
of Common Stock and the Series B Preferred Shares beneficially owned by SMIA. By
virtue of being the sole stockholder of SMIA, subject to the LTV Charter, the
Securities Purchase Agreement and the Side Letter, SMU has the sole power to
direct the vote and disposition of the shares of Common Stock and the Series B
Preferred Shares beneficially owned by SMIA. By virtue of being the majority
stockholder of Sumitec, Inc., subject to the LTV Charter, SMU has the sole power
to direct the vote and disposition of the 1,032 shares of Common Stock
beneficially owned by Sumitec, Inc. as described in Item 5(a) above. By virtue
of being the sole stockholder of SMU, subject to the LTV Charter, the Securities
Purchase Agreement and the Side Letter, SMI has the sole power to direct the
vote and disposition of the shares of Common Stock and the Series B Preferred
Shares. By virtue of being the majority stockholder of SMU, subject to the LTV
Charter, SMI has the sole power to direct the vote and disposition of the 1,032
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by Sumitec, Inc. as described in Item
5(a) above. Subject to the LTV Charter, SMI has the sole power to vote and
dispose
<PAGE>
CUSIP No.: 501921 10 0 Page 13 of 21 Pages
of the 210 shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by it as described in
Item 5(a) above.
(c) Except for the transactions described above, none of the
Reporting Persons nor, to the knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any of the
persons listed on Annex A, has effected any transaction in shares of Common
Stock during the past sixty days.
(d) Not applicable.
(e) Not applicable.
Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with
-------------------------------------------------------------
Respect to Securities of the Issuer.
-----------------------------------
Certain agreements exist between or among LTV and certain of its
subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Reporting Persons, on the other hand,
concerning (i) restrictions on the transfer of the shares of Common Stock
acquired in connection with the conversion of the Series A Preferred Shares and
the Series B Preferred Shares, (ii) conversion under certain circumstances of
the Series B Preferred Shares for shares of Common Stock, (iii) the registration
under certain circumstances of shares of Common Stock, (iv) the exchange under
certain circumstances by SMIA of the Series B Preferred Shares for certain
partnership interests held by subsidiaries of LTV and (v) the voting by LTV of
certain proxies in favor of persons nominated or designated by SMI as directors
of LTV. Such agreements are contained in Article 11 of the Securities Purchase
Agreement, in the Series B Certificate of Designations, in the Common Stock
Registration Rights Agreement, in the Consultation Agreement, in the L-S
Exchange Right Agreement, in the L-S II Exchange Right Agreement and in the Side
Letter, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibits 2, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9,
respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
Except as described above, to the knowledge of the Reporting
Persons, there exist no contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships
(legal or otherwise) among the Reporting Persons and the persons listed on Annex
A or between such persons and any persons with respect to any securities of LTV,
including but not limited to transfer or

voting of any securities of LTV, finder's fees, joint ven tures, loan or option
arrangements, puts or calls, guaran tees of profits, division of profits or
