Struggling battery maker A123 Systems Inc. - with nearly 800 employees in Michigan - said it reached a deal with a Chinese auto parts company for an investment of up to $450 million that could keep the company in business - and will likely see the Chinese firm acquire a majority stake in the battery maker.

Waltham, Mass.-based A123 reached a deal with Wanxiang Group Corp. that will allow the Chinese firm to acquire an 80 percent stake in A123.

A123 has won about $500 million in grants and other support from state and federal governments - including $238 million from the state of Michigan and a $249 million Energy Department grant as in August 2009 as part of the $800 billion stimulus.

A123 in April received a two-year extension on its deadline to spend the rest of the $249 million grant.

This Wednesday refocuses our attention on House watching, looking for signs of Bolger and company rolling over for Gov Snydholm wanting his Exchange.

"There's a push, obviously, to set up an exchange There is a separate push - if we don't set one up - that we start some of the planning process," Adler said. "And then there is a lot of pressure to delay things a little longer. We are receiving a lot of feedback with a lot of different ideas."
