Voting on Plan of Reorganization Concludes with Strong Support

MEXICO CITY, Jan. 11, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Grupo Aeroméxico, S.A.B. de C.V. ("Aeroméxico" or the "Company") (BMV: AEROMEX) informed on December 10, 2021, that the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving (i) the Disclosure Statement with respect to the Joint Plan of Reorganization for Aeroméxico and its subsidiaries that are debtors in the Company's Chapter 11 restructuring process (the "Plan"), and (ii) the solicitation of votes on the Plan. The solicitation process concluded on January 7, 2022, with strong creditor support throughout the Company's and such subsidiaries' debt structure.  Votes on account of claims totaling approximately $2.68 billion were submitted, of which approximately 86% (or the equivalent of approximately $2.3 billion) in votes were submitted in favor the Plan. Today, a formal certification of the votes was filed with the Court, by the Court-approved solicitation and claims agent, which provided that the Company and each of its subsidiaries, except Aerovías Empresa de Cargo, S.A. de C.V ("Cargo")—a subsidiary with less than $2 million in claims in the aggregate—, obtained the required affirmative votes in favor of the Plan.  The Debtors believe that certain votes were improperly cast at Cargo, and the outcome of that vote will ultimately be determined at an upcoming hearing before the Bankruptcy Court on the Company's motion to enforce certain court-approved Plan support provisions.

As resolved by the Board of Directors, at a Meeting held on December 21, 2021, a Shareholders Meeting of the Company will be held on January 14, 2022, to discuss and adopt the corporate resolutions required to effectuate the Plan, which would be subject to the occurrence of the "Effective Date" under the Plan.

The Court hearing to consider confirmation of the Plan is scheduled to begin on January 27, 2022.

The conclusion of voting and the strong support from the Company's creditors represents a key milestone in Aeroméxico's restructuring process and well-positions the Company to obtain Court approval of the Plan. Aeroméxico will continue working with all of its key stakeholders to obtain Court approval of the Plan and emerge from Chapter 11 as expeditiously as possible, following the Effective Date under the Plan.
