FRESH TWIST: SURPRISE OFFER WILL PREVENT TAKEOVER BY PREDATORY PLAN’

Lifeline to save Tongaat Hulett

Vision's 'take it or walk-away with nothing' no longer the only option for interested parties.

It appears there is still light at the end of the tunnel in the Tongaat Hulett saga following a major development for the beleaguered sugar producer a significant lifeline has been presented to the business rescue practitioners that could save the company from potential liquidation and offer a more favourable outcome for both shareholders and creditors.

The interested party has proposed that an R8 billion capital injection be used to fully settle the claims of creditors - including settlement of 100% of unsecured creditors' claims and approximately R550 million to settle the South African Sugar Association's statutory claim against it for outstanding levies.

A further allocation of 10% of the share capital is to remain in the hands of the current shareholders, which would represent four times the value offered by the Vision Consortium.

A welcome alternative to Vision's predatory plans
