Greek shipping magnate George Economou increases his recent efforts to gain control of Performance Shipping. After commencing a proxy battle last month, Mr. Economou launched a cash tender offer to acquire all of the company's outstanding common stock at a price of $3.00 per share. However, the offer is highly conditional and essentially requires the company to hand over control to Mr. Economou rather than defending against the unsolicited approach.
