Update re certain distributions to the Depositor Creditor Class in relation to the Plan of Compromise and Arrangement dated November 6, 2020 (the “Plan”)

All capitalized terms have meaning given to them in the Plan.

On March 10, 2021 (the “Plan Implementation Date”), the remaining conditions to Plan implementation were satisfied and the Plan was implemented. Pursuant to the Plan, distributions are to be made 60 days after the Plan Implementation Date or such later date as determined by the Clover CCAA Applicants, in consultation with the Monitor.

On or around May 10, 2021 (the “Distribution Commencement Date”), the Monitor intends to commence making distributions in respect of Claims in the Depositor Creditor Class where the Pre-Sale Purchaser elected the Compensation Option and their Deposit Amount is undisputed. It is expected that such distributions will be made in batches over several days.

Personal Information Confirmation

An email has been sent to each Pre-Sale Purchaser in the Depositor Creditor Class who elected the Compensation Option in the Plan and whose Deposit Amounts are undisputed to confirm contact details.  If you are a Pre-Sale Purchaser who considers that you should have received such an email but have not please contact the Monitor immediately at halo.clover@pwc.com.

Please note that the anticipated Distribution Commencement Date relates only to distributions in relation to the Depositor Creditor Class for Pre-Sale Purchasers who elected the Compensation Option and whose Deposit Amounts are undisputed.  The Monitor is continuing to work to resolve certain remaining claims in the Depositor Creditor Class and any distributions relating thereto will only be made once such claims are resolved.

In addition, the Monitor is continuing to work with the Clover CCAA Applicants to resolve the Unresolved Voting Claims in the General Unsecured Creditor Class (the “GUC Class”). Since the distributions to members of the GUC Class are determined based on a pro rata allocation in the GUC Class, the Monitor is not in a position to make any distributions in respect of GUC Claims at this time. The Monitor will provide further details regarding the anticipated timing for a GUC Class distribution as the Unresolved Voting Claims are resolved.

Status of File as of March 10, 2021

On March 10, 2021, the remaining conditions needed to be satisfied prior to implementation of the Plan were satisfied and the Plan was implemented. The Monitor’s Plan Implementation Date Certificate was served on March 10, 2021 in accordance with the Sanction Order of Justice Hainey, dated January 8, 2021.

One of the conditions for implementation of the Plan was the discharge of PwC as Court-appointed Receiver of The Clover and Yonge Inc. and The Clover on Yonge Limited Partnership. The Receiver’s Certificate was also served on March 10, 2021

The Monitor is continuing to work with the Clover CCAA Applicants to resolve the outstanding issues as efficiently as possible. In particular there remain a number of unresolved claims in the General Unsecured Creditor Class continuing that the Monitor is continuing to work to resolve. All claims in the General Unsecured Creditor class need to be resolved in order to determine the pro rata share of the distribution for each creditor in that class.

For those Pre-Sale Purchasers in the Depositor Creditor Class who elected for the Compensation Option, it is expected that the return of the unit purchase deposits as provided in the Plan will be paid 60 days after the date the Plan was implemented (in the week of May 10, 2021), in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

Status of File as of December 6, 2020 - Adjournment of December 7, 2020 Creditors’ Meeting

Please be advised that pursuant to the terms of the Meeting Order made in the CCAA Proceedings, the Creditors’ Meeting scheduled for December 7, 2020 is being adjourned (i.e. postponed). We expect the Creditors’ Meeting will be rescheduled for a date in the week commencing December 14, 2020.  You will be notified of the rescheduled date for the Creditors’ Meeting as soon as it is confirmed.

The reason for the adjournment is that changes are being made to both the plan of compromise and arrangement (the “Plan”) of The Clover On Yonge Inc. and The Clover On Yonge Limited Partnership (collectively “Clover”) and the Restructuring Support Agreement dated as of August 19, 2020 (the “Restructuring Support Agreement”) entered into by and among certain purchasers of pre-sale condominium units from Clover (the “Pre-Sale Purchasers”) and Concord Pacific Developments Inc. and certain of its affiliates (together, the "Sponsors”).  The Restructuring Support Agreement was outlined in the Monitor’s Thirteenth Report dated November 30, 2020.  Further time is required to complete the amendments and to disseminate the updated documents to Affected Creditors and allow them to review the amendments and have an opportunity to sign on to the amended Restructuring Support Agreement.

These revisions are being made as a result of negotiations between Clover and the Sponsors and certain stakeholders (facilitated by the Monitor over the past few days), which have resulted in amendments to the Restructuring Support Agreement that will increase recoveries to Pre-Sale Purchasers who sign the agreement, if the Plan is approved.

Pre-Sale Purchasers who have not already signed the Restructuring Support Agreement and wish to do so will be given 5 business days to review and sign the amended Restructuring Support Agreement prior to the rescheduled Creditors’ Meeting.

Further information on the amendments to the Restructuring Support Agreement, as well as a supplementary report of the Monitor concerning these amendments, will be posted to the Monitor’s website late on December 7, 2020.

Given the adjournment of the Creditors’ Meeting, the deadline for the Monitor to receive Proxy Forms is now extended to 1:00pm Eastern Time on the Business Day before the rescheduled Creditors’ Meeting (the “Proxy Deadline”).  Should any Creditor wish to change their vote or otherwise amend their Proxy Form, the Proxy Form needs to be received by the Monitor before the Proxy Deadline.

Creditors may also attend and vote at the rescheduled Creditors’ Meeting if they wish.

The Monitor has sent electronic login details for the Creditors’ Meeting to those parties eligible to attend and/or vote.  Parties can use the same login details to attend the rescheduled Creditors’ Meeting.

Further information will be available on the Monitor’s dedicated website, and questions can be submitted to halo.clover@pwc.com.
