PERWAJA - PRACTICE NOTE 1 / GUIDANCE NOTE 5:NEW DEFAULT (Amended Announcement)

Announcement Type: General Announcement
Company NamePERWAJA HOLDINGS BERHAD  
Stock Name PERWAJA  
Date Announced4 Mar 2014  
CategoryGeneral Announcement
Reference NoPH-140304-62132

TypeAnnouncement
SubjectPRACTICE NOTE 1 / GUIDANCE NOTE 5
NEW DEFAULT
DescriptionPERWAJA HOLDINGS BERHAD (“PHB” or “the Company”)
DEFAULT IN PAYMENT PURSUANT TO PRACTICE NOTE 1 OF THE MAIN MARKET LISTING REQUIREMENTS OF BURSA MALAYSIA SECURITIES BERHAD

INTRODUCTION

The Board of Directors (“Board”) of the Company wishes to announce that the Company will not be able to pay the coupon payment of RM9.8 million for its RM280.0 million nominal value of 7% Redeemable Convertible Unsecured Loan Stock (“RCULS”) which will fall due on 26 March 2014.

However, we wish to inform that the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Perwaja Steel Sdn Bhd (“PSSB”) has finalised the settlement agreement with Petroliam Nasional Berhad and Tenaga Nasional Berhad, being the two essential creditors of PSSB on 10 February 2014 and 18 February 2014 respectively. As such, PSSB will be able to resume its business operations with resumption of gas and electricity supply to its plant in Kemaman, Terengganu. Please refer to the Company’s announcement on 13 February 2014 and 19 February 2014 for details of the above settlement.

Further, PSSB together with its advisor are currently working towards finalising the debt restructuring scheme to restructure its financial position and total indebtedness.

Reasons for the default

Inability to generate cashflow by PSSB, the operating company under PHB’s group of companies (“PH Group”) due to temporary cessation of business operations as a result of non-payment to utility providers, which in turn was caused by the slowdown of steel industry and decline in steel prices.

Measures by the Company to address the default

PSSB has been in discussion with relevant parties to negotiate and explore various options to regularise its financial position and total indebtedness. Pending successful implementation of the restructuring scheme and resumption of operations by PSSB, PHB will not be able to pay the coupon payment for the RCULS.

Legal implications of the default including the extent of the listed issuer’s liability in respect of the obligations incurred under the agreements for the indebtedness

Pursuant to the default, the holders of RCULS have the right to enforce its rights under the loan documents. Nevertheless, PHB is taking proactive approaches to negotiate with its lenders to arrive at an amicable arrangement to both parties

Business, financial and operational impact of the default on the Company

PSSB is currently working out a restructuring scheme, and has been engaging both its financial lenders and major creditors in this exercise. An adviser has also been appointed. Pending PSSB being restructured successfully or a fresh injection of fund is forthcoming :

a) The existing banking facilities are frozen; and

b) Both the Steel Melt Shop ("SMS") and Direct Reduced Iron Plant ("DRI") have ceased operations.

It is therefore expected that the PHB Group will incur further losses until the conclusion of its restructuring scheme.

In the event the default is in respect of secured loan stocks or bonds, the lines of action available to the guarantors or security holders against the listed issuer

Not applicable.

In the event the default is in respect of payments under a debenture, to specify whether the default will empower the debenture holder to appoint a receiver or receiver and manager

Not applicable.

Where the default is in respect of a subsidiary or associated company, a confirmation as to whether the subsidiary or associated company is a major subsidiary or major associated company, as the case may be

Not applicable.

Where the Default is in respect of a listed issuer, major subsidiary or major associated company, as the case may be -

(i) a statement as to whether the listed issuer is solvent ("Solvency Declaration"). For this purpose, a listed issuer is regarded as "solvent" if the majority directors have formed the opinion that the listed issuer will be able to pay all its debts as and when they fall due within the period of 12 months from the date of the announcement; and

(ii) if the listed issuer is solvent, a statement that the listed issuer undertakes to provide to the Exchange, the Solvency Declaration duly executed by its board of directors within 3 market days from the announcement date

Currently, PSSB is in negotiation for a restructuring exercise with its lenders and creditors to negotiate the necessary steps to improve the Group’s cash position with the indulgence and support from the lenders and creditors.

The solvency of the Group is dependent upon the acceptance and successful completion of the restructuring exercise by the Group. At this point in time, the Board of PHB is seeking indulgence from all its creditors and is therefore unable to provide Bursa Securities the required Solvency Declaration Statement due to the on-going exercise being carried out.

This amended announcement is dated 4 March 2014 which shall supersedes the announcement dated 3 March 2014.
