THE COVENTRY AND RUGBY HOSPITAL COMPANY PLC - RNS ANNOUNCEMENT
THE COVENTRY AND RUGBY HOSPITAL COMPANY PLC (the "Issuer")
£407,239,000
3.246 per cent. Index Linked guaranteed secured bonds due 30 June 2040
(including £35,000,000 variation bonds)
(with authority to issue further bonds)
unconditionally and irrevocably guaranteed as to scheduled payments of
principal and interest pursuant to a financial guarantee policy
issued by MBIA ASSURANCE S.A. (succeeded by Assured Guaranty (UK) Ltd)
(the "Bonds")
(ISIN: XSO159152189 Common Code: 015915218)
CPCT Prepayment
In reference to (i) the Project Agreement dated 3 December 2002 between
University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire National Health Service Trust,
Coventry Primary Care Trust (succeeded by Coventry and Warwickshire
Partnership Trust ("CWPT")) and The Coventry and Rugby Hospital Company Plc,
dated 3 December 2002, as amended from time to time (the "Project Agreement"),
(ii) the Collateral Deed between The Coventry and Rugby Hospital Company Plc,
The Coventry and Rugby Hospital Company (Holdings) Limited, Mourant & Co.
Capital Trustees Limited (succeeded by Apex Corporate Trustees (UK) Limited)
(as Security Trustee
(https://pfi.affinitext.com/viewer/book?id=8435&folder_id=7267)
and Bond Trustee
(https://pfi.affinitext.com/viewer/book?id=8435&folder_id=7267) ) and MBIA
Assurance S.A. (succeeded by Assured Guaranty (UK) Ltd) (the "Collateral
Deed") and (iii) the Funders Direct Agreement dated 3 December 2002 between
(1) University Hospitals Coventry and Warwickshire National Health Service
Trust (2) CWPT (3) Mourant & Co Capital Trustees Limited (now Apex
Corporate Trustees (UK) Limited) (the "Security Trustee") and (4) the Issuer
(the "Funders Direct Agreement"). Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalised
terms have the same meaning as given to them in the Collateral Deed.
On 22 June 2022 CWPT served a Termination Notice dated 21 June 2022 on the
Security Trustee and Assured Guaranty under the terms of the Funders Direct
Agreement. The termination took effect on 1 February 2023. That
Termination Notice, issued by CWPT under the Funders Direct Agreement,
constitutes a CPCT Prepayment Event.
Partial Prepayment of Bonds
As a consequence of the CPCT Prepayment Event and as provided for in the
Senior Finance Documents, on 15 August 2023 the Credit Provider directed the
Issuer to redeem the CPCT Portion (9.826590 per cent) of the Outstanding
Principal Amount of each Bond at the CPCT Prepayment Amount together with
accrued interest adjusted for indexation (the "CPCT Redemption"). The CPCT
Redemption occurred on 18 September 2023.
This was in the total aggregate amount of £45,117,084.77.
Supplemental Bond Trust Deed
Condition 8(a) (Scheduled Payments) of the Bonds set outs an illustrative
repayment schedule setting out the Principal Amount, Scheduled Principal,
Scheduled Interest and Total Payment, such figures as of the original date of
the Bond Trust Deed (the "Existing Repayment Schedule").
As a consequence of the CPCT Prepayment the numbers set out in the Existing
Repayment Schedule no longer accurately reflected the Outstanding Principal
Amount, Scheduled Principal, Scheduled Interest and Total Payment in respect
of a Bond of £1,000 denomination as unadjusted for indexation.
The Issuer has therefore agreed with the Bond Trustee to enter into a
supplemental bond trust deed in order to set out updated figures in a revised
repayment schedule so that the illustrative figures now take into account the
CPCT Redemption, which was executed on 24 June 2024 (the "Supplemental Bond
Trust Deed").
A copy of the revised repayment schedule has been appended to this RNS.
