Ekosem-Agrar AG: Deferral of the interest payment due on 1 August 2024 to the noteholders of the Ekosem-Agrar bond 2019/2029

Walldorf, 27 June 2024 – After consultation with e.Anleihe GmbH, joint representative of both bonds issued by the company, and the members of the company's noteholders' advisory committee, Ekosem-Agrar AG has decided to exercise the right resolved at the noteholders' meeting on 31 May 2022 to defer payment of the interest claims of the noteholders of the Ekosem-Agrar bond 2019/2029 (ISIN: DE000A2YNR08) due on 1 August 2024. Accordingly, the noteholders' interest claims of 2.5% p.a. for the 2023/2024 interest period will be deferred by one year and for the 2022/2023 interest period and the 2021/2022 interest period by a further year in each case.

The interest deferral is in line with the bond restructuring resolved by a large majority of the noteholders at the noteholders' meeting on 4 June 2024, which is still to be implemented and provides in particular for the sale and transfer of the Ekosem-Agrar bond 2019/2029 at a purchase price of EUR 300.00 per note. Accordingly, no interest payments to the noteholders are planned beyond the purchase price. The deferral is thus being decided to secure the agreed bond restructuring.
