Fiat CEO to meet GM execs on Sunday-source

MILAN, Feb 19 (Reuters) - Fiat's Chairman Paolo Fresco and Chief Executive Alessandro Barberis are set to meet top GM executives in the United States on Sunday, a financial source told Reuters on Wednesday.

Fiat has been discussing changing the "put" agreement it has with GM in the last few weeks, through which Fiat has an option to sell GM the 80 percent of Fiat Auto the U.S. giant does not already own from 2004.

Media reports have said that under one possible option, Fiat could ask GM to inject two billion euros into Fiat Auto in return for delaying or scrapping the "put". Fiat presented possible plans to creditors on Saturday.
