Schoenherr partners Stephan Frotz and Peter Konwitschka advised Immofinanz on the transaction.
The transaction was approved in January 2010, but because of Immoeast's secondary listing on the Warsaw stock exchange the merger required approval from the Polish regulatory authorities, which has now been granted. The merger will now be registered with the Vienna commercial registry. The merger between the two listed real estate companies is part of the overall restructuring of Immofinanz and is one of the largest mergers of listed companies in Austria's history.
Schoenherr has been advising on various steps of the restructuring of Immofinanz. Prior to the 2010 merger with Immoeast, Schoenherr advised on the 2009 Immofinanz convertible bonds exchange offer directed to holders of Immofinanz' outstanding 1.5 billion convertible bonds; the 2009 restructuring of Immofinanz' 415 million senior syndicated credit facility; the 1.46 billion sale of Immofinanz's subsidiary Immo-austria holding the Group's entire Austrian real estate portfolio to Immoeast; and the 2009 sale of selected prime real estate and financial investments to satisfy liquidity needs in the short term.
