Sale of Viking Poseidon completed - Closing condition fulfilled for proposal for full settlement of Eidesvik Offshore ASA Senior Unsecured Bond Issue 2013/2018 at 60% of par value
Reference is made to Eidesvik Offshore ASA's (the "Company")
stock exchange notice dated 1 March 2017 regarding the
Company's proposal for full settlement of Eidesvik Offshore
ASA Senior Unsecured Bond Issue 2013/2018 (the "Bond Loan")
at 60% of par value and summons to a bondholder meeting for
the Bond Loan.
As described in the stock exchange notification, the
proposal is subject to (a) the bondholders' meeting's
acceptance of the proposal and (b) the Company having
received the sales proceeds in full from the sale of Viking
Poseidon within three business days prior to the applicable
back stop date 31 March 2017. The Company has today received
the sales proceeds in full from the sale of Viking Poseidon
and the proposal is consequently only subject to approval
from the bondholders to be addressed in a bondholders'
meeting 16 March 2017. As previously announced, the Company
has received irrevocable voting undertakings from holders of
approximately 67.6% of the bonds in the Bond Loan in favour
of the proposal.
Provided that the proposal is approved by the bondholders'
meeting on 16 March 2017, the record date for full
settlement of the Bond Loan will, as set out in the summons
to the bondholders' meeting, be set to end of business 16
March 2017. Payment and full settlement of the Bond Loan
will in such case be expected to be carried out 20 March
