Corporate Information: IDBD

 

IDBD has been maintaining negotiations with creditors in order to restructure its financial debt in favorable terms. As of June 30, 2020, the total balance of (i) IDBD's Series 9 Bonds was NIS 901 million (the “Series 9”), (ii) IDBD’s Series 14 Bonds were NIS 889 million guaranteed by IDBD’s 70% of DIC’s shares (the "Series 14"), (iii) IDBD's Series 15 Bonds were NIS 238 million guaranteed by 5% of Clal’s shares (the "Series 15"). Due to lack of agreement, on September 17, 2020, a petition was submitted in the District Court in Tel-Aviv-Jaffa (“The Court”) on the subject of granting of an order for the opening of proceedings by the Trustee for the holders of the Company’s Bonds (Series 9) (“The petition”). Within the framework of the petition, the Court was requested to grant an order for the opening of proceedings for the Company pursuant to Section 18 of the Insolvency and Economic Rehabilitation Law, 5778 – 2018 (“The Law”); to instruct the appointment of a trustee for the Company according to law. On September 21, 2020, the holders of the bonds (Series 14) of IDB Development approved making the entire uncleared balance of IDB Development's bonds (Series 14) repayable immediately. On September 22, 2020, the Company submitted its initial response to the Petition in the Court, in which it argues that it is in the best interest of the company and all its creditors to exhaust the negotiations with the controlling shareholder and its creditors during a short period in order to try and maximize the value of its assets, for the benefit of the creditors and the company, and avoid costs and additional harmful consequences. In addition, the response of Dolphin Netherlands B.V. (the controlling shareholder of the Company) was also submitted, as were responses by the Trustees for the bondholders (Series 15 and Series 14) of the Company to the Petition. It should be mentioned that in tandem to his response, the Trustee of bondholders (Series 14) of the company submitted petitions for the enforcement of a lien and for the appointment of a receiver as well as an urgent petition for the setting of a hearing on the said petitions for a receivership, together with the hearing on the petition, which was set for September 24, 2020. On September 25, 2020, the Court declared the insolvency and liquidation of IDBD and initiated liquidation proceedings. The Court appointed a trustee for the shares of IDBD and a custodian for the shares of DIC and Clal. We are analyzing together with our local and international advisors the decision, including alternatives and courses of action.
