The main guiding principle of OPG"s strategy over the coming years involve generating the short and medium-term investment capacity required to create and realize the long-term value required for settlement of its liabilities.
The Company"s chief objectives business plan are:
Assuming the successful implementation of this business plan, the Company shall have:
OPG, the Group"s holding company, does not directly own any real estate assets, which are instead owned by dedicated subsidiaries. However, all the cash derived from the subsidiaries" transactions is centralized at OPG level, which also distributes it among its subsidiaries. This is why this business plan incorporates all cash flow forecasts of wholly owned subsidiaries. Financial flows between the Company and its not wholly owned subsidiaries or partnerships which are recorded are, for cash outflows, the funding requirements, or for cash inflows, distributions (repayment of interest , dividends and disposals flow).
The business plan assumes:
The Company"s business plan thus assumes continuing generating investment capacity whose equity flows, subject to the deferral that alone can ensure the settlement of its liabilities. The required investment capacity can be fuelled by:
The above investment capacity may eventually be reinforced by equity contributions (not included in the present business plan):
Raising additional capital would be likely to enable – among others - the acquisition of new land reserves or new investment properties with upside, paving the way for greater prospects of growth for the development business than those forecasted in the business plan.
The business plan is based on two main pillars:
The business plan will be implemented in three successive phases between 2010 and 2020.
Finalization of current projects (both commercial and residential) and dynamic management of non-mature assets (reduction of vacancy, structural works, lease engineering) ;

The debt rescheduling plan is a key component of the Group"s overall restructuring plan. Under the sauvegarde proceedings, the Commercial Court has the ability to decide at its sole discretion whether to approve a rescheduling of liabilities up to 10 years.
The financial restructuring plan involves rescheduling OPG"s liabilities – essentially OPG bonds - so as to enable the Group to generate the investment capacity required to pursue – cycle by cycle – the value creation needed for it to repay its creditors in full.
The company"s debt structure has two major components: debt to bondholders and debt to other creditors. The sections below set forth the intended repayment approach for both categories, including the conditions and timeline.
Between 2005 and 2007, OPG issued several bonds listed on various markets (referred to as "Bonds"). The holders of these bonds ("bondholders") represent the most important creditors of OPG.
During the preparation of the debt rescheduling proposal plan, the Company has been led to calculate the maximum amount that could be due to bondholders, including all reimbursements premium, 10 years of interests, no equitization or payment through the BSAR. This maximum bond liability that would be due over 10 years would amount to EUR 614.278.348,02

The Company"s non-bond creditors have submitted their claims to the creditor representative appointed by the Paris Commercial Court (subject to verification and validation) for a total debt of EUR 862.6 Million, mainly comprising contingent liabilities in respect of certain commitments of subsidiaries guaranteed by OPG and (residually) contingent liabilities in respect of the share subscription options maturing in 2014, as well as intercompany liabilities.
The Group"s property projects are undertaken by dedicated subsidiaries which have recourse to bank loans to finance the projects. OPG has guaranteed certain of its subsidiaries" commitments under such loans. Certain creditors of OPG"s subsidiaries have therefore lodged claims relating to the potential application of these guarantees including pledges of certain of the subsidiaries" shares. Subject to verification, total liabilities of EUR 710 Million are involved of which EUR 568 Million have been challenged.
The share subscription options maturing in 2014 issued by OPG on the basis of the prospectuses registered by the Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier on 22 March 2007 and 22 October 2007 (ISIN XS0290764728) could result in a liability for the Company in the event of any change in its control. Subject to verification, total liabilities of EUR 0.7 Million are involved.
Subject to verification and validation, they represent total liabilities of EUR 151.7 Million. The maturity of these loans is posterior to the duration of the plan de sauvegarde.
Since the opening of the Sauvegarde period, the Company has aimed to restructure its bond debt by engaging in talks with the largest possible number of Bondholders. The Company appreciated the need to find a middle ground between bondholders" request and needs and proposed a mixed solution, consisting in an exchange of existing bonds for new convertible bond, new shares and new warrants.
This solution was proposed and rejected by the General Assembly of Bondholders held on the September 15, 2009 in Paris and the observation period was then subsequently extended for 6 additional months.
The major reason for rejecting the first proposed solution seemed to be the perceived compulsory entry to the Capital for Bondholders. That is why it has been contemplated to entice Bondholders could benefit from the "claims compensations" (pursuant to Bonds 2010 and Bonds 2014 conditions) which allow Bonds to be immediately due and used for exercise of warrants. This proposal had the advantage of being
implementable on an individual basis, voluntary and therefore not binding. In January 2010, a majority of Bondholders of bonds 2010 and 2014 rejected the proposed resolution, thereby constraining the Bondholders, who had expressed the will, the ability to use their bonds for the exercise of warrants shares, which would have reduced OPG debt.
The Company has been prompted to develop and propose to its creditors, under the terms of the French Commercial Rules ("Code du Commerce") a draft plan based on, the term out of its debt repayment at a pace which corresponds to its business and market cycles, which are intrinsically tied to long cycles needed to create value in real estate.
The following debt rescheduling proposal is subject to the Paris Commercial Court Approval. An audience is scheduled to take place by end of June 2010.
It is proposed to repay 100% of the registered claims, subject to verification, over ten years (based on the following schedule) with effect from the first anniversary of the judgment materialising the Plan:
| Year | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| % of the total liability | 2% | 5% | 5% | 5% | 5% |
| Year | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| % of the total liability | 5% | 10% | 14% | 20% | 29% |
This repayment schedule is consistent with the timing of the Group"s property investment and development projects which the economic crisis has delayed well beyond the Group"s main bond maturities of 2013- 2014.
The schedule is such as to cover the Group"s maximum cash outflows based on the following assumptions:
The maximum liability under each bond issue, inclusive of bonds" nominal amounts, repayment premium and all interest payable at the date of the judgment materialising the Plan and accruing throughout the duration of the Plan, assuming that no bonds with equity access are converted or surrendered in payment of the exercise price of share subscription options;
The maximum amount of the guarantees provided by OPG as surety for its subsidiaries" commitments, estimated on the basis of the difference between the latest market value of each applicable property less a discount of 7%, plus 3% of selling costs (brokers, lawyers) and the balance remaining due under the corresponding guaranteed loan (see the table below).
It is important to stress that, at the date of the judgment materializing the Plan, the average weighted maturity of the Group"s bond issues as a whole will amount to three years.
The bonds repayable in 2011 and 2012 do not provide access to OPG"s share capital. The amount repayable in respect of these bonds is thus subject to no uncertainty and the annual amounts repayable under the Plan have been calculated on the basis of a recognized liability comprising the sum of the following items:
•The principal outstanding on the date of the judgment materializing the Plan;
•The interest payable at the date of the judgment materializing the Plan;
•All interest accruing throughout the duration of the Plan (calculated each year after adjustment for the progressive repayment of principal under the Plan)

The bonds repayable in 2010 and 2014 provide access to OPG"s share capital via the option (provided for in the issue contract) of using the bonds to pay the share subscription price (by offset) in the event of exercise of the Company"s share subscription options maturing in 2012 or 2014. The amounts of interest accruing after the date of offset, and of repayment premium, will thus remain uncertain until the date of expiry of the share subscription options maturing in 2012 and 2014 (namely 31 December 2019). Further, the repayment premium for the bond issue maturing in 2010 will only be recognized as a liability if OPG"s share price on 18 November 2010 proves lower than the exercise price for the share subscription options maturing in 2012.
Payments under the Plan have thus been calculated, for the bonds maturing in 2010 and 2014, on the basis of the recognized and certain liability for each year comprising the sum of the following items:
•The principal outstanding on the date of the judgment materializing the Plan;
•The interest payable at the date of the judgment materializing the Plan;
•All interest accruing from the date of the judgment materializing the Plan and due at the end of each applicable year;
•For the last year of the Plan, the repayment premium
The amount of recognized and certain liability thus increases year by year, for the bonds not subject to offset, given the continuing accrual of interest in favor of bondholders whose bonds remain outstanding (i.e. have not been offset).
On the assumption that no such offset of the bonds maturing in 2010 and 2014 takes place throughout the duration of the Plan, the cash outflows for settlement of the applicable liability may be calculated as follows

The bonds maturing in 2013 provide access to OPG"s share capital via a share conversion option provided for in the issue contract. The amounts of interest accruing after the date of conversion and of repayment premium, will thus remain uncertain until the date of expiry of the contractual conversion period (namely 15 May 2013).
Basis of determination of the liabilities payable until 15 May 2013 inclusive
Payments under the Plan have thus been calculated until 15 May 2013, for the bond issue maturing in 2013, on the basis of the recognized and certain liability for each year (with effect from the first year of the Plan) comprising the sum of the following items:
•The principal outstanding on the date of the judgment materializing the Plan;
•The interest payable at the date of the judgment materializing the Plan;
•All interest accruing from the date of the judgment materializing the Plan and due at the end of each applicable year.
The amount of recognized and certain liability thus evolves year by year, until 15 May 2013, based on the number of any bonds converted. Adjustments will be made each year, for payments made prior to 15 May 2013, in favor of bondholders not exercising their conversion rights and in order to recognize the ensuing full amount of their recognized and certain liability.
Basis of determination of the liabilities payable with effect from 15 May 2013
With effect from 15 May 2013, the amount of liability under the bonds maturing in 2013 is no longer subject to uncertainty and therefore reflects both the repayment premium and full amount of interest remaining to be accrued on the bonds that remain outstanding. From that date, the Plan payments have been calculated on the basis of a bond liability comprising the sum of the following items
•The principal outstanding on the date of the judgment materializing the Plan;
•The interest payable at the date of the judgment materializing the Plan;
•The sum of interest accruing from the date of the judgment materializing the Plan and until 15 May 2013, and accruing until the final year of the Plan (calculated for each applicable year on the outstanding principal after taking account of prior repayments under the Plan);
•The repayment premium
On the assumption that no offset of the bonds maturing in 2013 takes place throughout the duration of the Plan, the cash outflows for settlement of the applicable liability may be calculated as follows

As provided for by section L. 228-106 of the French code of commercial law, the Plan requires modification of the bond issue agreements in order to adjust the offset or conversion ratios applicable to the bonds maturing in 2010, 2013 and 2014 in line with the progressive repayment of the nominal amount of the bonds scheduled under the Plan.
The creditors benefiting from guarantees provided by OPG only have a conditional right to payment for so long as the debt of OPG"s subsidiaries towards them has not become due. In the event of such a creditor claiming payment, during the period of performance of the Plan, of any sum become due by the main debtor and thereby by OPG, the said creditor would be eligible for the benefit of the Plan with effect from the applicable due date of payment.
Certain bearers of the share subscription options maturing in 2014 have declared contingent receivables based on compensation that might be due in the event of any change in the Company"s control.
But no such compensation is payable until any change in the Company"s control has become effective. In the event of any bearer of the share subscription options maturing in 2014 claiming payment, during the period of performance of the Plan, of any sum become due in this respect, the said creditor would be eligible for the benefit of the Plan with effect from the applicable due date of payment.
Loans to OPG by subsidiaries are to be reimbursed in fine after the maturity of the Plan. The final repayment date of these loans is typically the 31st of December 2020.
The Board of Directors estimates that a rescheduling of its debt is highly probable within the safeguard framework.
The "circularisation" (i.e. the written submission for consideration to creditors by the Court-appointed Creditor Representative ) of proposals to creditors might lead to a negative opinion of the majority of the Creditors about the Company proposals. However the "circularisation" is consultative only, and the Court is able to judge a rescheduling without approval from creditors.
The above presented amortization schedules might be modified by the Paris Commercial Court, provided that the payment of annuities is possible under the Business Plan.
While deemed extremely unlikely given the financial situation of the Company, the quality of its restructuring plan and business plan, reviewed by the independent consultant Grant Thornton in Paris, the Paris Commercial Court could decide to send into "redressement judiciaire" whereby the Court appoint a Receiver to restructure, sell or liquidate the Company.
It is also possible that the Plan could be adopted by the Tribunal and later challenged at Court by some creditors.
The approval of the draft Plan, and the decision of the Paris Commercial Court to materialize the Recovery Plan, will have the effect of prohibiting OPG"s creditors from demanding the application of any stipulation contained in any agreements or undertakings, whether oral or written, to which they may be a party and relating to the payment of OPG"s liabilities, since all of OPG"s creditors will be bound to respect the provisions of the Recovery Plan.
