By Angela McDaniels
Tacoma, Wash., Feb. 17 - Clearwater Seafoods Income Fund is soliciting consents to amend its 7% convertible unsecured subordinated debentures due Dec. 31, 2010, according to a company news release.
The company is seeking to extend the maturity of the convertibles to Dec. 31, 2013. If the consent solicitation is successful, Clearwater Seafoods LP will affect a similar extension of its class C units.
In exchange for consents, the company will increase the interest rate to 9.5% and reduce the conversion price to C$5.90 per fund unit from C$12.25.
In addition, the amended convertibles will not be redeemable prior to Dec. 31, 2010, and holders of the amended convertibles will receive 101% of par at redemption or maturity.
For the proposed amendments to be approved, consents are needed from holders of at least two-thirds of the convertibles.
A meeting of the convertible holders will be held at 9 a.m. ET on March 16. Written consents and proxies must be received by Computershare Investor Services Inc. (800 564-6253) no later than 9 a.m. ET on March 12.
