TORONTO, Nov. 9, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
Lloyd I. Miller and entities related to him (the "Miller Holders") announced today that they have commenced discussions with other holders of the Gold-Linked Notes issued by Gran Columbia Gold Corp. (the "Company") to form an ad hoc group to oppose the Company's debt restructure proposal under the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia). The Miller Holders believe that the Company's restructure proposal for the senior Gold-Linked Notes significantly undervalues the Gold-Linked Notes.
On September 29, 2015, the Company announced its restructuring proposal for both its senior Gold-Linked Notes and its junior Silver Linked Notes (the "Restructure Proposal"). The Company has set a meeting concerning the Restructure Proposal for November 27, 2015. The Miller Holders (owners of approximately 18% of the $100 Million Gold-Linked Notes) believe that the Company's Restructure Proposal fails to honor the senior, secured status of the Gold-Linked Notes.
On November 4, 2015, the Miller Holders noted their opposition to the Restructure Proposal for the following reasons (among others). The Restructure Proposal:
The Miller Holders have concluded that the foregoing and other features of the Restructure Proposal are not in the best interests of the holders of the Gold-Linked Notes. As such, the Miller Holders are opposing the current Restructure Proposal, whether pursued under the Business Corporations Act or the Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA).
On November 4, 2015, the Miller Holders announced their intention to form an ad hoc group to address the Restructure Proposal. Since that time, holders opposing the restructure proposal have contacted the Miller Holders. The Miller Holders may be contacted by additional non-insider holders of the Gold-Linked Notes interested in joining the ad hoc group at the number below.
