SINGAPORE - Offshore marine group Pacific Radiance announced on Friday (Feb 2) a consent solicitation exercise for a revised restructuring plan with better terms for holders of its S$100 million 4.3 per cent medium-term notes .

In its preliminary proposal, Pacific Radiance offered full conversion of the notes to new equity, at a rate of three new shares for every S$1 held.

Under the revised proposal, also for full conversion, noteholders will receive 19 new shares for every S$5 held, which equates to 3.8 shares for every $1.
