If the Company remains consolidated, upon emergence from Chapter 11 the Company’s senior noteholders would receive 98% of Consolidated Superior’s equity, while existing shareholders would receive 2% of such equity (along with 5-year warrants to purchase 10% of Consolidated Superior equity at a price equivalent to par plus accrued interest on the notes (the “Consolidated Superior Warrants”)), in each case subject to dilution from the MIP and the Consolidated Superior Warrants.
The Company is in discussions with its credit providers to secure financings that would be provided under either scenario. Additionally, certain members of the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group have executed a commitment letter to provide up to $200 million in a Delayed Draw Term Loan (the “DDTL”) to Consolidated Superior or RemainCo, as the case may be, if needed.
Ducera Partners and Johnson Rice & Company are acting as financial advisors for the Company, Latham & Watkins, LLP as legal counsel, and Alvarez & Marsal as restructuring advisor. Evercore is acting as financial advisor for the Ad Hoc Noteholder Group and Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP as legal counsel.
