Evergrande credit investors can receive new notes maturing in 10 to 12 years or a combination of new debt and instruments tied to the shares of Evergrande’s property-services unit, its electric-vehicle division or the builder itself, the company said in a Hong Kong Stock Exchange filing. Scenery Journey creditors are slated to get $6.5 billion ($8.61 billion) of new bonds, while Tianji investors will receive US$800 million of new notes.
China Evergrande Group, once among China’s biggest developers and now a poster child for its property crisis, laid out details of a multi-billion dollar restructuring plan that calls for its offshore creditors to swap their debt for new securities.
The proposal, released Wednesday and coming 15 months after Evergrande first defaulted on its public dollar bonds, addresses debt tied to China Evergrande, its Scenery Journey Ltd. unit and offshore financing arm Tianji Holding Ltd.
