This notice is important and requires the attention of all holders of the Bonds (the “Bondholders”).  If Bondholders are in any doubt as to the action they should take, they should consult with their own independent professional advisors. 

As announced on 28 December 2015, the composition agreement of LBI ehf. (“LBI” or the “Company”), which was confirmed by the District Court of Reykjavik on 18 December 2015, became final and binding under Icelandic law on that date (the “Composition”). 

As part of the Composition, it was agreed (amongst other things) that LBI would release the winding-up board of LBI (the “Winding-up Board”) and certain other officers, employees and advisors of LBI (together with the Winding-up Board, the “Released Persons”) from any personal liability in relation to the Composition and related matters.  It was also agreed that LBI would indemnify the Released Persons in relation to certain potential liabilities. That indemnity was secured by an indemnity fund in an account maintained by Wilmington Trust (London) Limited as security for LBI’s obligations under the indemnity (the “Indemnity Arrangements”). 

LBI and the Winding-up Board have now agreed to terminate the Indemnity Arrangements.  As part of the termination of the Indemnity Arraignments (amongst other things): (i) a refreshed release would be provided by LBI in favour of the Released Persons releasing them from any liability arising from the Composition and related matters (the “New Release”); and (ii) a new, more limited, indemnity would be provided by LBI in favour of certain of the Released Persons (the “New Indemnity”), which indemnity will automatically lapse and cease to have any effect if Bondholders holding (as at any given time) at least two thirds in nominal value of the total amount of outstanding Bonds execute deeds of adherence to provide a release on the terms of the New Release.  Since it is in LBI’s interests for the New Indemnity to come to an end, LBI is now requesting that each Bondholder executes a deed of adherence to the New Release and a release fee letter in return for a release fee in proportion to each Bondholder’s holding of Bonds.  A full version of this announcement can be found here

On 31 January 2020, the Paris Court of Appeal rendered its decision in the context of the prosecution for fraud against Landsbanki Luxembourg S.A. (in liquidation) and some of its former managers, employees and advisers concerning equity release loans granted prior to the 2008 financial crisis.

The Court upheld the judgment of the Paris criminal court of 28 August 2017, therefore acquitting all the accused parties and dismissing all the borrowers' claims for damages.

Under certain conditions, a judicial review of this decision may be filed before the French Court of cassation.
