WOODBOIS LIMITED

("Woodbois" or the "Company")

 

Termination of Facilities with Nykredit Bank A/S

The Company has received a letter from Nykredit Bank A/S ("Nykredit" or the "Bank") which terminates loan facilities to the Company's subsidiary, Woodbois International ApS, for repayment in full. Woodbois Limited is the guarantor of this loan and in an accompanying letter to the Company the guarantee is called. The amounts outstanding are approximately DKK 6.8m (USD 0.61m) and EUR 2.05m (USD 2.11m), and the repayment deadline is 17 January 2025.

The letter from Nykredit explains that the reason for termination is that, over the past year, discussions and dialogue for the purpose of reaching an amicable agreement to settle the Company's debt to Nykredit has regrettably failed to reach such an agreement. 

The letter invites the Company to discuss a settlement agreement with the Bank.

The Directors believe that a settlement agreement is in both parties' interest, and together with advisers, will seek to achieve this as soon as possible. A further announcement will be made in due course.
