As Planned, the Accelerated Safeguard Plan
Will Be Presented to the Commercial Court in the Next Few
Days
Resumption of Trading on 29 June at Market
Opening
Regulatory News:
The court-appointed administrators have transmitted to the ORPEA
Group (Paris:ORP) the results of the vote of all classes of
affected parties on the draft accelerated safeguard plan, details
of which are set out in the annex to this press release.
Of the 10 classes of parties affected, 6 approved the draft
accelerated Safeguard Plan by the required majority (more than
2/3), 3 others, including the shareholders, supported the draft
accelerated Safeguard Plan by more than 50% and the OCEANE class
voted 49.2% in favor of the plan (50,8% against).
In the coming days, pursuant to the provisions of article L.
626-32 of the French Commercial Code, the Company will apply to the
Nanterre Commercial Court for approval of the accelerated safeguard
plan through a cross-class cram down.
If the Court considers that the legal conditions are met, ORPEA
could thus finalize its financial restructuring in the second half
of 2023, in accordance with its corporate interest. The Company
will then be able to pursue the implementation of its Refoundation
Plan.
Insofar as the accelerated safeguard plan has not been approved
by all classes of affected parties, and assuming that the plan is
approved by the Court, existing shareholders should hold, after
completion of the capital increases and in the absence of
reinvestment, around 0.04% of the Company's share capital. The
theoretical value of the shares would be around €0.02.
Under these conditions, the main characteristics of the capital
increases implemented as part of the financial restructuring plan
will be as follows (for further details on the terms and conditions
of the capital increases, investors are invited to refer to the
appendix to the Company's press release dated 26 May 2023):

1 The maximum total amount (including share premium) of this
capital increase will be equal to (x) the total principal amount in
euros of the Company's unsecured indebtedness (i.e. 3,822,719,247
euros) plus (y) 70% of the total amount of accrued but not due
interest on the unsecured debt on or before 24 March 2023
(excluded), i.e. 24,871,699 euros and (z) the amount of accrued or
due interest on Unsecured Debt between 24 March 2023 (included) and
the date of adoption of the Accelerated Safeguard Plan by the
Specialized Commercial Court of Nanterre (included), i.e.
38,614,929 euros. Assuming that the Accelerated Safeguard Plan is
adopted by the Specialized Commercial Court of Nanterre on 24 July
2023 (i.e. at the end of the 4-month period following the date of
the judgment opening the Accelerated Safeguard Procedure on 24
March 2023), the maximum total amount of the capital increase would
therefore be 3,886,205,875 euros.
2 This priority right will only benefit shareholders existing
prior to the launch of the Equitisation Capital Increase and will
therefore not benefit unsecured creditors who may become
shareholders of the Company following the Equitisation Capital
Increase.
