Core Scientific, Inc. Announces Filing of Amended Plan of Reorganization and Extension of Equity Rights Offering Subscription Deadline
- None.
- None.
Combined Hearing rescheduled to January 16, 2024
Equity Rights Offering subscription deadline extended to January 5, 2024
The Company previously announced a global settlement with all key stakeholders, including the Ad Hoc Noteholders Group, the Unsecured Creditors Committee, the Equity Committee, and B. Riley – the Company’s Debtor in Possession lender (the “Global Settlement”). While subject to further finalization, the Plan reflects the Global Settlement and represents another step towards confirmation and exit from Chapter 11.
In connection with filing of the Plan, the Bankruptcy Court also approved the Company’s motion requesting to modify certain dates and deadlines with respect to the Plan, including an extension of the deadlines to vote on the Plan or file an objection to the Plan. While the Court has agreed to reschedule the combined hearing to consider both (a) final approval of the Disclosure Statement and (b) confirmation of the Plan to January 16, 2024 (the “Combined Hearing”), the Company still expects to emerge from Chapter 11 in mid-to-late January 2024.
As a result of rescheduling the Combined Hearing, the deadline for participating in the Equity Rights Offering has been extended to Friday, January 5, 2024. The Rights Offering Procedures and Subscription Form can be found and submitted by clicking here.
