Island Offshore updates restructuring plans
Island Offshore Shipholding has announced it has reached agreement in principle on the terms of a proposed restructuring with certain of its main lenders and an ad hoc group of bondholders in its NOK700m senior unsecured callable bond issue.
If approved by all relevant stakeholders, the restructuring will include extensions of certain of the company’s and its subsidiaries’ financial indebtedness including the bonds, contribution of NOK100m new equity from shareholders, easement of financial covenants and certain amendments to the company’s newbuilding schedule.
