GUIDANCE AND ADVICE

A. BANKING OBLIGATIONS & AGREEMENTS
We advise businesses on their banking obligations, legal rights and available options for restructuring or entering into financial settlement arrangements.
B. EXAMINERSHIP
Examinership is a legal process designed to rescue viable businesses experiencing temporary financial difficulties while preserving employment and ongoing business operations. The Court appoints an Examiner who assesses the company’s financial position and prepares restructuring proposals acceptable to the creditors.
An application for the appointment of an Examiner may be submitted by:
• The company itself
• A creditor including a current, contingent or prospective creditor
• A guarantor of the company’s obligations
• An employee of the company
• A member or shareholder holding at least one-tenth of the company’s share capital
C. RESTRUCTURING OF NON-PERFORMING LOANS
• Review, assessment and negotiation of corporate loan restructuring arrangements
• Settlement solutions and evaluation of new or existing terms
• Repayment strategies and rescheduling of outstanding debts
D. SCHEME OF ARRANGEMENT
A Scheme of Arrangement is a legally binding agreement between a company and its creditors for the full or partial repayment of its obligations within an agreed timeframe.
It is suitable for a viable company experiencing temporary liquidity difficulties.
What does a Scheme of Arrangement provide?
• The company continues its operations
• Court proceedings and the threat of liquidation are suspended
• The company’s credit position is restructured
• The directors remain in office
• Returns to creditors are maximised
E. BUSINESS RESCUE AND STRATEGIC RESTRUCTURING
When timely intervention remains possible we design and implement realistic rescue plans in cooperation with all relevant stakeholders.
• Timely corrective measures before the situation escalates
• Business restructuring from planning through to implementation
• Management and limitation of operational risks
• Interim management during transitional periods
• Financial restructuring aimed at achieving long-term viability

D. Corporate Financial Restructuring and Insolvency
The Corporate Restructuring Plan (“CRP”) is a legally binding agreement between a company and its creditors, concerning the full and/or partial repayment of the creditors within a specific time period.
If a company has a sustainable future, but is facing liquidity issues resulting in increased pressure, a CRP may potentially be the solution not only for the company, but also for its creditors.
Benefits of a CRP for a Company Facing Financial Pressures
➤ Enables the company to continue its operations with the aim of improving its financial situation and enhancing its debt to creditors.
➤ Stops the initiation of legal actions and liquidation proceedings.
➤ Relieves pressure to find liquidity.
➤ Directors are entitled to remain in their positions.
➤ Flexible methods may be applied to ensure the highest possible return of funds to creditors.
