The value of TMP's offer has dropped to about $341 million currently from about $498 million, based on the closing price of its shares on the day the deal was announced on June 29. The change was due to a decline its stock price.

TMP agreed to buy HotJobs, the No. 2 player in the field, in a deal initially valued at around $460 million.

TMP would be entitled to a termination fee of $15 million and reimbursement of up to $2 million in other expenses if HotJobs spurns its offer in favor of the Yahoo bid, HotJobs said.

The all-stock TMP offer has been held up by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, reportedly due to antitrust concerns. On Dec. 12, Sunnyvale, Calif.-based Yahoo made an unsolicited offer to acquire HotJobs for $10.50 per share. With TMP's stock decline, its offer is now worth the equivalent of about $9.02 per HotJobs share, based on the offer price of 0.2195 TMP shares per HotJobs share and TMP's closing stock price on Friday of $41.10.

HotJobs shares rose 18 cents to $10.65, while TMP slipped 3 cents to $41.07, and Yahoo was off 2 cents to $16.90, all on Nasdaq on Monday.

Some analysts have estimated that $1 billion of the $10 billion market for job classified advertising is spent on the Internet. The market for online recruiting has held up better than much of the dot-com world in the current recession.

HotJobs has about 5 million resumes in its database. The company reported a loss of $4 million on revenues of $27.5 million in its latest third quarter.
