Chapter 11 Filing

On January 14, 2020 (the “Petition Date”), REVA Medical, Inc. (the “Company,” or the “Debtor”) filed a voluntary petition for relief under chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Court”), commencing the chapter 11 case In re REVA Medical, Inc. (Case No. 20-10072 (JTD)). The Debtor will continue to operate its business and manage its property as a debtor-in-possession pursuant to sections 1107 and 1108 of the Bankruptcy Code. On the Petition Date, the Company also filed the Prepackaged Chapter 11 Plan of REVA Medical, Inc. (the “Plan”) which sets forth a proposed restructuring transaction aimed to address the Company’s outstanding debt structure through a significant de-leveraging and to position the Company for long-term growth. To ensure their ability to continue operating in the ordinary course of business, the Debtors have filed with the Court motions seeking a variety of “first-day” relief (collectively, the “First Day Motions”), including to: (a) authorize the Debtors to continue using their existing cash management system, (b) authorize the Debtors to pay prepetition wages, compensation and employee benefits, (c) establish procedures with respect to the transfer of equity interests, (d) authorize the Debtors to pay vendors, suppliers and contract counterparties in the ordinary course of business as the debts come due, (e) authorize the use of cash collateral, and (f) establish a timeline for confirmation and consummation of the Plan in order to effectuate a swift exit from bankruptcy.

Restructuring Support Agreement

On December 23, 2019, the Debtor entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “Restructuring Support Agreement”) with the lenders under that certain Credit and Guaranty Agreement dated as of April 2, 2019 (as amended and modified from time to time) and holders of notes pursuant to that certain Convertible Note Deed dated as of September 24, 2014 and that certain Convertible Note Deed dated as of April 22, 2017 (collectively, the “Supporting Creditors”). Among other things, the Restructuring Support Agreement provides that the Supporting Creditors will support the Debtors’ restructuring efforts as set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions of, the Restructuring Support Agreement. The Restructuring Support Agreement also provides that the Supporting Creditors will consent to the Debtors’ use of cash collateral pursuant to the proposed form of order governing the Debtor’s use of cash collateral, under which the Supporting Creditors will receive administrative and priority status for adequate protection claims equal in amount to the aggregate diminution in the value of the Supporting Creditors’ prepetition security interests in the debtors’ collateral. In exchange, the Debtors have agreed to seek approval of the Plan and complete their restructuring efforts subject to the terms, conditions, and milestones contained in the Restructuring Support Agreement and otherwise comply with the terms and requirements set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement. The plan of reorganization contemplated by the Restructuring Support Agreement would provide for the exchange of certain claims of the Supporting Creditors equity in the reorganized Company and a new limited liability company established to continue the development and commercialization of the Company’s bioresorbable polymer technologies for coronary artery disease and peripheral artery disease. The Restructuring Support Agreement is subject to a number of conditions, including, among others, material compliance with the obligations set forth in the Restructuring Support Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Restructuring Support Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Restructuring Support Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

On January 14, 2019, the Company issued a press release announcing that the Debtors had entered into the Restructuring Support Agreement and filed a petition to initiate the chapter 11 case. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Cautionary Information Regarding Trading in the Company’s Securities.

The Company’s securityholders are cautioned that trading in the Company’s securities during the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases is highly speculative and poses substantial risks. Trading prices for the Company’s securities may bear little or no relationship to the actual recovery, if any, by holders thereof in the Company’s Chapter 11 Cases. As noted, the transaction specified in the Restructuring Support Agreement contemplate that existing equity interests in the Company would be cancelled and that the holders thereof will neither receive nor retain any property on account thereof. Accordingly, the Company urges extreme caution with respect to existing and future investments in its securities.
