Dubai's Jebel Ali Free Zone (JAFZA) said on Sunday it had received the consent from a majority of sukukholders for early redemption of a $2 billion-equivalent Islamic bond.
The state-linked industrial free zone, part of a unit owned by Dubai World, said a majority representing 89 percent of certificate holders had voted in favour of the Extraordinary Resolution in a meeting on May 24 in London. "Accordingly the consent conditions have been satisfied and the Deed of Amendment has been executed," the statement on Nasdaq Dubai said.
In order to change any terms of the certificates, the company was legally bound to seek approval from holders. Citigroup Inc, Dubai Islamic Bank and Standard Chartered were appointed as solicitation agents.
