DGAP-News 611 0 Kommentare Rickmers Holding AG encourages noteholders once again to register for the noteholders' meeting on 1 June 2017 by the end of today (29 May 2017, 24:00 hours CEST) at the latest - Seite 2

Unlike the registration which is required by today, 29 May 2017, 24:00 hours (CEST), the other documents that are necessary for the participation in the noteholders' meeting and the exercise of the voting rights, respectively, in particular, the special confirmation with blocking note and any power of attorney to the voting rights representatives or a third party (if applicable), can be presented at the latest upon admission to the noteholders' meeting.

Any and all information regarding the second noteholders' meeting is available on the website of Rickmers Holding AG in the "Investor Relations" area (www.rickmers.com/investors) under "Rickmers bond". There, noteholders find, among others, the invitation to the noteholders' meeting, forms for the special confirmation with blocking note and for granting a power of attorney as well as the Q&A catalogue containing questions and answers concerning the planned bond restructuring.

Finally, Rickmers Holding AG emphasizes once more that, as explained in the Q&A catalogue, in case the second noteholders' meeting has no quorum or in case the proposed restructuring concept is rejected, an immediate filing for insolvency proceedings would be imminent.
