Chinese infrastructure investment fund
We advised a Chinese infrastructure investment fund and their appointed receivers on the enforcement of security following a default under a convertible bond issued by the holding company of a telecoms infrastructure operator in Hong Kong. The security package included 100% of shares in the operating company, which holds the telecommunication and regulatory licences. Our Finance, Litigation, Employment teams worked together to prevent removal of customer records and IT equipment, fend off intra-group claims and employee claims, and defeat a competing creditor's attempt to have provisional liquidators appointed. Our Finance team structured a credit bid to sell the company to an SPV of the investment fund. Drawing from the expertise of our TMT practice, we made sure that all the regulatory and licensing requirements on change of control are met. A clean receivership sale was ultimately made possible.
