Decision to discontinue the fast-track arrangement proceeding for Włodarzewska S.A.

+

Dear Sirs,

We inform you that, with the Decision of of 12 April 2017, the District Court for the Capital City of Warsaw in Warsaw, 10th Commercial Division for Bankruptcy and Restructuring discontinued the fast-track arrangement proceeding for Włodarzewska S.A. w restrukturyzacji with its seat in Warsaw. The ruling is not final. The decision on discontinuation of the proceeding may be appealed against with a complaint (art.  327 of the Restructuring Law). The deadline for filing a complaint is two weeks and starts as of the date of service of a copy of the decisions including the reasons. An application for reasons and service of the decision together with the reasons shall be filed within a week as of the court’s session (applicable to entities which were notified of the session) or the publication of this announcement in Monitor Sądowy i Gospodarczy (applicable to entities which were not notified of the session).

In the opinion of the restructuring court, it was necessary to discontinue the fast-track arrangement proceeding, in particular, to avoid the risk of doing the creditors wrong, and, moreover due to the high risk of the failure to perform the arrangement proposed by the debtor to the creditors. The court pointed out that under the applicable laws and regulations, for creditors – and, in particular, for a group of buyers of residential premises – the most advantageous option may be to conduct bankruptcy proceedings against Włodarzewska S.A. w restrukturyzacji with its seat in Warsaw.

From the very beginning, the court-appointed supervisor has taken the position that, in order for the restructuring process to be successful, it is necessary to obtain additional funding and reaching an agreement with creditors in rem in order to ensure conditions that allow for the continuation of the development projects which had already been started and the completion of the planned projects. Unfortunately, the debtor failed to achieve those objectives, despite the talks conducted by the debtor.

We inform you that Zimmerman Filipiak Restrukturyzacja S.A. holds the position of the court-appointed supervisor until the decision on discontinuation of the fast-track arrangement proceedings for Włodarzewska S.A. w restrukturyzacji with its seat in Warsaw becomes final. Before the said decision becomes final, the provisions of the Restructuring Law continue to apply to the debtor – it pertains to, among others, the protection against execution, given to the debtor, and the prohibition against satisfying claims included in the arrangement, as well as to the obligation to obtain the consent of the court-appointed supervisor to performance of any actions which go beyond ordinary management.

We remind you that, in any matters pertaining to the course of the restructuring proceeding, the supervisor contacts the creditors via e-mail. Please send any correspondence to the following address: wlodarzewska@zfrsa.pl. We emphasise the fact that, due to the restrictions provided for in the Restructuring Law, the court-appointed supervisor only informs creditors about the course of the proceedings, and any consultation must not have any features of providing legal assistance, in particular as regards pursuing claims against the debtor.
