INTU DEBENTURE PLC (THE "COMPANY") ANNOUNCES UPDATE ON PROPOSED RESTRUCTURING TRANSACTION
19 November 2021
Update on Proposed Restructuring Transaction
Further to the Company announcement made on 22 January 2021 (the "January RNS") and subsequent announcements, including on 19 March 2021, 24 May 2021 and 14 July 2021, announcing a proposed amendment and restructuring transaction (the "Proposed Restructuring"), the Company has been proceeding with implementation of the Proposed Restructuring, which has been supported by holders of a significant majority of the outstanding principal amount of the Stock.
The Company has become aware of recent trading in the Stock, which has resulted in the members of the Ad Hoc Committee holdings less than 50 per cent of the outstanding principal amount of the Stock. This may or may not affect the level of support for the Proposed Restructuring. The Company encourages Stockholders to contact the advisers to the Ad Hoc Committee, details of whom are set out below, or the Company's advisers to enable the Company to gauge the level of support for the Proposed Restructuring.
The Company will continue to constructively engage with the Ad Hoc Committee and other Stockholders regarding completion of the Proposed Restructuring and confirms that it is continuing to negotiate and finalize the terms required to effect the Proposed Restructuring.
Capitalised terms used in this Notice and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given to them in the Supplemental Trust Deed dated 30 July 2020 and the trust deed dated 5 October 2006 (as amended and supplemented from time to time and together with the Supplemental Trust Deed, the "Trust Deed") constituting the Stock and made between the Company, the Charging Subsidiaries (as defined in the Trust Deed), and The Law Debenture Trust Corporation p.l.c. (the "Trustee"), unless the context otherwise requires.
Please note that the Trustee has not been involved in the preparation or formulation of this announcement and expresses no views or opinions on this announcement. Stockholders are advised to take their own legal, financial and/or tax advice in relation to this announcement.
