SECTION 1

NOTICE REGARDING DISTRIBUTION OF RESIDUAL ENTITLEMENT

We recently completed the distribution of the residual entitlement under the terms of the Residual Securities Trust Deed which was part of the Scheme of Arrangement. We are receiving many inquiries from holders regarding the calculation of entitlement under the recent distribution, so the purpose of this notice is to explain in simple narrative terms how the entitlements were calculated.  Please note that for the exact details of the Scheme, holders should refer to the Scheme Document and should seek professional advice at all times before making any decision based on the general information and materials provided in this notice.

 

RESIDUAL TRUST

Under the terms of the Scheme, we formed a trust to hold the entitlement for any Scheme Creditors who came in during the six-month period following the original settlement date of the Scheme. Holders who came forward during that period were allowed to claim their entitlement. These holders also had the option to request we sell their securities and give them cash instead of the bonds. Once that six-month period expired, any Scheme Consideration left in the trust was to be distributed pro rata to all holders who participated in the Scheme either before the Settlement Date or before the end of the six-month trust period. 

 

PARTIAL EARLY REDEMPTION AND INTEREST PAYMENT

Please note that after the Scheme settled, there was a partial early redemption of the New Notes on July 31, 2018 for which bondholders received cash. There was also an interest payment on the New Notes in December 2018 for which bondholders received PIK Notes and cash. These payments are set out in the spreadsheet below labeled “Summary of Scheme Consideration”. The proceeds from the early redemption attributable to the trust bonds were paid into the trust. The PIK interest and the cash interest attributable to the trust bonds were also paid into the trust at the end of December 2018.

TRUST OPTIONS

Under the terms of the Scheme, holders who participated in the trust were entitled to either take their securities or to direct us to sell them on their behalf. If you participated in the trust, in order to determine the entitlement for any position you hold, it is necessary for you to know which option you chose in the account holder letter (“Securities”-Option 1 or “Cash”-Option 4). 

 

DISTRIBUTION DIAGRAM

There is a diagram below called “Distribution Flow Chart” which sets out where the bonds and cash went on the settlement date and in the trust, including the distribution of the residual amounts to which no eligible trust creditors were entitled by the end of the trust period. The terms and formulae used to calculate the various entitlements are at the bottom of the Summary of Scheme Consideration.
