Sky Solar Announces Settlement with Hudson

Sky Solar宣佈與哈德森達成和解

HONG KONG, Nov. 07, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sky Solar Holdings, Ltd. (NASDAQ: SKYS) ("Sky Solar" or the "Company"), a global developer, owner and operator of solar parks, announced today that on November 5, 2019, it entered into a settlement agreement (the "Settlement Agreement") with Hudson Solar Cayman, LP and its affiliates (collectively, "Hudson"), in connection with the lawsuit filed by Hudson against the Company earlier this year.

香港,2019年11月7日(環球網)--全球太陽能園區開發商、擁有者及營運商--納斯達克控股有限公司(以下簡稱“Sky Solar”或“本公司”)今日宣佈,於2019年11月5日與Hudson Solar Cayman,LP及其聯屬公司(統稱“Hudson”)就今年較早前Hudson對本公司提起的訴訟訂立和解協議(“和解協議”)。

On February 8, 2019, Hudson filed an action against the Company in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, seeking summary judgment in lieu of a complaint to, among other things, accelerate amounts allegedly due under a note purchase agreement and enforce certain guaranties related to the note purchase agreement against the Company. The Company opposed Hudson's allegations in the action.

2019年2月8日,Hudson向紐約州最高法院對本公司提起訴訟,尋求簡易判決以代替申訴,其中包括加速票據購買協議下據稱到期的金額,並針對本公司執行與票據購買協議相關的某些擔保。該公司在訴訟中反對哈德森的指控。

The Settlement Agreement resolves the disputes in connection with the lawsuit. Under the settlement, Hudson agreed to dismiss its lawsuit and convert outstanding amounts of the notes issued to Hudson pursuant to the note purchase agreement into equity interests in certain project companies owned by Sky Solar in the United States, Uruguay, Chile, Czech Republic, and Japan. Sky Solar further agreed to Hudson's purchasing additional equity interests in some of those project companies. These transactions will result in a net payment of approximately US$18 million to the Company, subject to certain working capital adjustments. Both parties also agreed to release each other from liabilities in connection with the Hudson lawsuit.

和解協議解決了與訴訟有關的糾紛。根據和解協議,Hudson同意駁回訴訟,並將根據票據購買協議向Hudson發行的未償還票據金額轉換為Sky Solar在美國、烏拉圭、智利、捷克共和國和日本擁有的某些項目公司的股權。Sky Solar進一步同意哈德森收購其中一些項目公司的額外股權。經若干營運資金調整後,這些交易將導致向本公司支付約1,800萬美元的淨額。雙方還同意免除對方與哈德遜訴訟有關的責任。

The Settlement Agreement remains subject to Hudson's and the Company's entering into further definitive documentation to close the debt-to-equity conversions and acquisitions agreed to in the Settlement Agreement. The parties have until December 16, 2019 to close the transactions under the Settlement Agreement.

和解協議仍須視乎哈德遜及本公司訂立進一步的最終文件,以完成和解協議中同意的債轉股及收購。雙方必須在2019年12月16日之前完成和解協議下的交易。
