GENERAL INFORMATION

 

2.

Securities Act exemption applicable

Pursuant to the terms set forth in the draft plan prepared under the safeguard procedure (procedure de sauvegarde) of the Company under articles L.620-1 ff. of the French Code de commerce (the “Safeguard Plan”) and the Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of the Guarantors and certain other subsidiaries of the Company (as may be amended or modified, the “Plan of Reorganization”), the Company, on or before February 28, 2018, expects to issue up to $461 million (including a euro denominated tranche) in principal amount of Second Lien Senior Secured Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”) to certain holders of the Company’s 5.875% Senior Notes due 2020, 6.50% Senior Notes due 2021 and 6.875% Senior Notes due 2022 (collectively, the “Existing Senior Notes”) or their assignees.

The Notes will be issued under the Indenture to be qualified hereby (the “Indenture”), to be entered into by and among the Applicants, The Bank of New York Mellon, London Branch, as trustee, principal paying agent, calculation agent, transfer agent, collateral agent and international security agent, The Bank of New York Mellon SA/NV, Luxembourg Branch as registrar and The Bank of New York Mellon, as U.S. collateral agent. The form of the Indenture is attached hereto as Exhibit T3C.

The issuance of Notes and related guarantees in an aggregate principal amount of $375 million (the “New Money Notes”) will be made by the Company in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and the rules and regulations thereunder, while the issuance of Notes and related guarantees in an aggregate principal amount of $86 million relating to accrued interest claims under the Existing Senior Notes (the “Interest Notes” will be made in reliance on the exemption from registration under the Securities Act, pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 1145(a)(1) of Title 11 of the United States Code, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”).

Section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code exempts the offer and sale of securities under a plan of reorganization from registration under the Securities Act and state securities laws if three principal requirements are satisfied: (i) the securities must be offered and sold under a plan of reorganization and must be securities of the debtor under the plan; (ii) the recipients of the securities must hold a claim against the debtor, an interest in the debtor or a claim for an administrative expense in the case concerning the debtor; and (iii) the securities must be issued entirely in exchange for the recipient’s claim against or interests in the debtor, or “principally” in such exchange and partly for cash or property. On October 16, 2017, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York entered its confirmation order, which confirmed that the issuance of the Notes complies with the aforementioned requirements of Section 1145(a)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code and, accordingly, will be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

The Restructuring Plan foresees a Rights Issue and also the issuance of new shares as well as various types of warrants (i.e., Backstop Warrants, Coordination Warrants, Warrants #1, Warrants #2 and Warrants #3), which will cause the ownership of the Company to change significantly upon consummation of the Restructuring Plan.

To the Applicants’ knowledge, as of December 31, 2017, Bpifrance and IFP Energies Nouvelles, who have previously indicated to the AMF that they vote in concert, held respectively 2,069,686 and 107,833 fully paid ordinary shares of the Company, giving Bpifrance and IFP Energies Nouvelles respectively 10.90% and 0.48% of the voting rights as of such date. The Company’s statuts (constituent documents) provide that fully paid ordinary shares may be held in either registered form or bearer form at the option of the shareholder. As from May 22 1997, a double voting right is allocated to all registered form and fully paid-up shares registered in the name of the same holder for at least two years. Substantially all ordinary shares held by the Company’s shareholders are presently held in bearer form and only a few double voting rights have been granted. As of December 31, 2017, the total number of outstanding ordinary shares was 22,133,149 and the total number of voting rights was 22,558,848.
