Arendt has, in cooperation with lead counsel Latham &
Watkins, advised an ad hoc committee of senior secured
noteholders on Luxembourg law in connection with the successful
amendment and extension of the senior secured notes of the issued
by Graanul Invest group, Europe's largest producer of
industrial-grade sustainable wood pellets.
The transaction, which closed on 27 August 2025, received
overwhelming support from more than 99% of noteholders. It involved
a €55 million partial paydown and the exchange of €630
million senior secured fixed and floating rate notes for
approximately €581 million of new and amended notes due
2029.
This landmark transaction is an important step in strengthening
Graanul Invest's capital structure and reflects the ability of
international investors to work constructively with the company to
achieve a sustainable financing solution. It also illustrates once
again the flexibility and robustness of the Luxembourg regime
applicable to financial collateral arrangements.
