Last week, Sterling Global Holdings sent a similar letter to Eastman Kodak Co. offering to buy the Rochester, N.Y., company for about $1.3 billion, or $4.81 per share. After the offer was made public, Kodak's shares rose to $3.60 from about $3.25 before falling to $3.40 on Tuesday.

In an interview with the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle, Weintraub said his company buys distressed firms.

"I have been buying distressed companies for the past 15 years," Weintraub told the paper.

"Our dealings have been in the hotel and casino area as well as buying assets of large bankrupt companies such as GM and Chrysler," he said. "We have bought some of their dormant properties and land left in the bankrupt entities. Our company looks for companies that have turnaround potential."

Kodak has also said it had never heard of Sterling Global until it got a letter. Kodak confirmed that Sterling Global is not a shareholder.
