Altos Hornos de México (AHMSA) , one of Mexico's largest steelmakers, said it would conduct a vote on April 18 on a plan to pay creditors and noteholders all recognized claims, as part of a general payment agreement.

Eligible creditors have the option of exchanging a portion of those payment rights for cash and company's common shares, AHMSA said in a statement on Tuesday.

Securing approval of the plan is one of the final steps needed to lift the suspension of payments, which the company has been operating under, AHMSA said.
