Admiral presents a bank guarantee of R$ 324 million for the Vasco SAF auction On the eve of the proposal submission for the sale of Vasco SAF, Almirante Participações filed the documentation regarding the safeguards required by the notice in the Judicial Recovery. The company presented a bank guarantee of R$ 324 million issued by Banco Crefisa, in addition to proving the judicial deposit of R$ 27 million related to the biennium. The letter establishes that Crefisa will be the primary payer and jointly responsible with Almirante for the guaranteed obligation. The guarantee is irrevocable and irreversible. In the event of default on the Financial Assistance intended for the payment of creditors in the Judicial Recovery, the bank must pay the amount due, within the limit of the guarantee, within five business days after the notification provided in the document. Important: the R$ 324 million has not been deposited in court. It is a bank guarantee. The R$ 27 million has been effectively deposited judicially. Almirante, led by Marcos Lamacchia, is the stalking horse of the competitive process. The opening of proposals is scheduled for tomorrow (25), at 2 PM. Now, in addition to the deposit of R$ 27 million, the guarantee of R$ 324 million is also formally filed in the records. (translated)
