Creditors of Brazil's Odebrecht SA are in advanced talks to let the corruption-ensnared conglomerate keep its crown jewel asset, listed petrochemical company Braskem SA , for another two years, retreating from their prior demand for a quick sale, two sources with knowledge of the matter said.

The engineering and construction company, implicated in a series of graft scandals across Latin America, will submit its debt proposal to a creditors' meeting on Wednesday, but representatives of creditors whose debt is secured by Braskem shares have informally agreed to it, the sources added, asking for anonymity to disclose private talks.
