UPDATE: Strauss-Kahn: Agreement Reached On Loan To Iceland

Strauss-Kahn, who was speaking at a news conference after a summit of G20 leaders, did not say how much the loan was for, but said the board would vote on it Wednesday.
Earlier reports have said the Nordic country was seeking some $2 billion from the International Monetary Fund.
