Catena Media Plc (the "Company" or "Catena Media") announces that the Company today has received consent from the bondholders in the written procedure (the "Written Procedure") initiated on 19 December 2023 under its outstanding bond loan 2021/2024 with ISIN SE0015807888 (the "Bonds") and that the Written Procedure has been successfully concluded by Nordic Trustee & Agency AB (publ) (the "Agent"), in its capacity as agent under the Bonds.
The Written Procedure was initiated in order to receive the bondholders' approval of certain amendments to the terms and conditions for the Bonds including, inter alia, an extension of the final redemption date of the Bonds by twelve (12) months and a mandatory partial prepayment of 50 percent of the outstanding nominal amount.
Prior to the completion of the Written Procedure, the outstanding total nominal amount of the Bonds was EUR 55,000,000, of which Catena Media owned Bonds with a nominal amount of EUR 12,300,000. Following the completion of the Written Procedure and the subsequent Mandatory Partial Prepayment (as defined below), the outstanding total nominal amount of the Bonds will be EUR 27,500,000, of which Catena Media will own Bonds with a nominal amount of EUR 6,150,000 (i.e. the outstanding total adjusted nominal amount of the Bonds will be EUR 21,350,000).
The Company hereby announces that the required quorum was obtained today, 10 January 2024 and that the required majority of the votes cast in the Written Procedure were in favour of the proposal (100 percent of those who voted in the Written Procedure voted in favour of the proposal). Accordingly, the Agent has today concluded the Written Procedure.
Göran Blomberg, Chairman of the Board of Directors, comments: "We are pleased that the holders of bonds have accepted the amendments to the terms and conditions which will ensure that the bond repayments will be matched with expected proceeds from deferred payments - improving Catena Media's financial flexibility and allowing the company to focus on the underlying business."
In short, the amendments to the terms and conditions of the Bonds entail:- that the final maturity date of the Bonds shall be extended by 12 months, i.e. such that the final maturity date becomes 9 June 2025
- that the Company shall make a mandatory partial prepayment of 50 percent of the outstanding nominal amount at a price equal to 100.6 percent of the nominal amount (being an aggregate amount of EUR 27,665,000) plus any accrued but unpaid interest on the repaid amount (the "Mandatory Partial Prepayment")
- that the Company shall pay bondholders a consent fee amounting to one percent of the nominal amount of the Bonds (being an aggregate amount of EUR 550,000) (the "Consent Fee")
- that the Company will be able to redeem the Bonds at a price equal to 100.6 percent of the nominal amount during the lifetime of the Bonds
